Feeding Station for Scooters

I have two red scooter dragonettes that are eating frozen brine and mysis. I would like to try to get them on pellets as well. They love to eat, but sometimes it's hard to feed them enough because of my other fish. Ugh, they are so obnoxious when I'm trying to feed the scooters!!

I want to set up a feeding station. How do I do it (I've read a little bit about it online) and how do I train them to use it?

Any tips would be great ! Thanks!

 

depending on what size fish you have you can use a jar and put the mysis in it at first then slowly add pellets in to the mix. just if you use the idea then you can leave the food in the jar in the tank until you can see bubbles forming on the inside of the jar at the top ( put the jar on its side) that means the foods breaking down so you need to change it

 

Cool, thanks. I was wondering about the food decaying and stuff. How do I get them to use it? Will they eventually find it? It seems like they would be freaked out about going into the jar...

 

trust me if there food some where they will find it just make sure the jar is clear like a mason jar. I dont think it will be a problem here's a video of one
