    I picked up some feeder fish about 2 days ago.
    He eats it right up.
    Still trying real hard to make him eat frozen.
    Tried the fishing string method almost took it but still nothing.
    If you have any methods i would love to hear them.

    soak the feeders in a tiny bit of tank water + 4-5 drops of garlic extreme for 5 mins or as long as feeders can take it. Do this every day for a week then find the best frozen lion food and soak it for 30 mins or longer. Prawn, Silversides, Krill should work. GL.
