I had some that I got from Ausyfish that were already weaned onto pellets. Unfortunately I got them late and they didn't build up enough to get through the winter last year. Himzo. |

Wild caught Golden Perch very rarely take a pellet feed... Even those that are "weaned" to pellet feed in the hatcheries... often result in 20%+ going off the pellet... and dying... |

Hmmm i had the same offer just yesterday  I guess I'll tell him not to worry too. How about trout? Can they be weaned? Will fish learn from the example set by their pellet eating tank mates?

Cod, on the other hand ... are an ambush fish, usually feeding deep in the water column... and on a live feed... a sinking pellet just doesn't stimulate a response in them... |
