Fry are nearly blind. The only chance they have at eating the first few days is if a rotifer happens to travel through their extremely limited field of view directly in front of them. It triggers a feeding instinct in the fry to dart forward. You need millions of living, swimming organisms to trigger that hunting instinct and dead food won't do that.
