depends on what breed you have. and getting them to the point where they are ready for frozen is ALOT of work.

try seahorse.org for loads of horse-rasing info.

Hi Lenny,
I have always had the best success to feed them live nutricous foods until at least 6 weeks, preferably 8 weeks old and then start training to frozen.

Some people start training them to frozen at an earlier age.

thanks! Now when you say frozon should I try frozon bbs then adult bbs then mysis or is it just preferance.

You can start training with mixing in some cyclopeze, small mysis (hikari ) is excellant, PE mysis.
Try to keep them whole when feeding out, but be careful that whatever you are feeding is the proper size for the fry. You don't want to feed out food that is too large for them.

Variety is also very important in their diet so vary their foods.
