I have heard of people training thier Seahorses to eat off of a designated feeding "Bowl". How can this be done?

Thanks,
Mike
 
It all starts with putting the food in the bowl. Then they eat out of it. :D

It might help if they watched you put the food in the bowl the first couple times. Just so they know where it is going. They will pick up on what's going on fairly quickly.
 
my horses move to the food once they see it. If you want to train them to eat from a bowl then you have to create the feeding ritual for them.

put the bowl in the same place all the time
make sure they see you putting their food in the bowl at feeding time
always feed at the same times during the day/night
you should be feeding at least twice a day

They will eventually congregate arond the feeding area at meal time.

Good luck, Kevin
