dottybackss Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 How to train a longnose hawkfish to eat flakes? He only eats frozen right now but I want him to eat flakes so I dont need to feed that much frozen food. Link to comment
4x5 Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Try feeding flake or pellets only for a couple of days. It won't starve if it doesn't eat them right away. If you keep feeding frozen when it won't eat flake it will likely just keep ignoring the flake. My Flame Hawkfish is a pig, I'm surprised the Longnose isn't eating everything in it's path.

Ya I wondering the same thing. When I feed flakes to the other fish, he will go check it out but choose not to eat it. Link to comment
jestep Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 I would try small spectrum pellets. You could try soaking in garlic as well. Link to comment
