Tips for starting tiny tris

DennisDeLapJr Oct 02, 2008 08:49 AM

Hi I've hatched and raised many tri colors before but I currently have a later in the season clutch of babies I just can't seem to take pinkies...Tried, live thawed,
braining, splitting soaking in trout juice, shark tanking small lizards scenting with a frog no avail....keeping them under identical husbandry conditions as the others...hate to force feed there way too small to pinkie pump...
but don't want to loose these guys either they've been hunting so I know I'm close just getting frustrated...Please if any veteran tri keepers would share a secret with me or two I'd be so grateful. thanks
