GS is wat?? Bro if most of ur ITs inside the tank are all mp trained, its only a matter of time this piece will follow them and eat because he will know its food. So really need alot of determination to train him eat mp.

bro jubie.. i think 200 in your fgt not tt good leh.. first thing is i think the suction power of the pump for the the fgt might be too strong for those baby ITs.. 2nd when they grow its not 1 pcs that grows.. its 200 pieces.. so the space for them gets smaller and smaller very quickly.. even if u transfer them to mud pond.. 1 mud pond i think also not enough when they grow big.. and have u considered the feeding cost and rental cost in the long run.. its cheap to feed them now.. but when they hit 10 inch.. i think u have to spend hundreds a month on feeding and pond rental.. the poison seems deep.. but pls do consider properly..

ken, try throwing feeders in from one corner one by one till the it's used to feeding frm tht corner then while feeding feeders throw some mp in. it'll take a while but the fish'll come round. increase the ratio of mp to feeders slowly till the fish is fully on mp. imo this sure beats the "tough love" like treatment of "starving". example, throw in 4 feeders, 1 mp on the first day. after a few days increase to 3 feeders, 1 mp. then 2 feeders, 1 mp, and so on and so forth. i weaned off w 2 large sized orinos(usually the larger, the more difficult to convert) within days of this treatment, whereas 3 months of starving had failed to work before i learnt of this treatment. as i've been overseas this past 2 weeks, i could not continue this on my third orino, which did not respond to any feedings and has now starved for the past 3 weeks. good luck!

Hi ramaru bro thx for ur advice. I will look into the suction issue carefully. I think this is a really valid point. I am looking to rent to 2 big mud point to keep them 100 each. But i not sure when is the earliest available slot at ST 96. Thats y i got a FGT temporary to house them. I taking up this project for 1 year then i see how it goes

I think the cost issue makes sense and i will do a break down on the sums and see how much i need to set aside for this project. I update u again on the progress coz they will only arrive nxt week

hmmm.. do take into account that the price needed increases with each passing day.. actually i think 100 adults in 1 pond also abit cramp.. but if baby then perfectly.. after 1 year if they grow in pond i expect them to be around 4-6 inches?? anyway bro.. if u need help in setting up your fgt or wanna go shop let me know.. i'm just a phone call away.. tmr free whole day.. lol.. if no need help i will also go visit u once your fgt is done up.. den can go "longkang" tiger fishing in your fgt.. lol..
