Apistogramma cacatuoides fry

[hakan]

Hi all

My Apistogramma cacatuoides frys 2 - 2,5 weeks old. I am feeding them with Artemia and Microworms. I want to accustom frys fd food. I tried 2 or 3 times they didn't eat. Is there any way fd food they can eat?

Hakan try introducing live food and pulverized fd at the same time.. Eventually they get used to it.

They may also me a bit young still. I do not try to transition cac fry off live food until they are about 1.5 - 2 months old, and are large enough to eat a lot of food... and are therefore voracious feeders. Young fry are triggered to eat by what I call the 'wiggle factor'. If the food does not move, they will not eat it.
