Looking for folks who have wild caught their own live stock and how the transition to tank went. Feeding seems like it could be an issue for the fish to get accustomed to. I do know inverts typically have no issue from my experience with them being wild caught.

I used to do temporary tanks for wild caught livestock, I would go out and find some of their natural foods and then feed pellets at the same time, and usually I could get them to eat just pellets, didn't work every time though.
