Thanks. Wasn't planning on this happening so all these guys swimming around are a bit light on food. Thinking of putting them into a RAS and trying to feed train them - assuming it's the same as with lmb. Some of the adults just picked it up, but I don't think all of them did. Would feed training them with small BG be helpful if I don't have the density of smb to create a lot of competition?
I suspect that the perfect situation for feed training would involve the following, all of which you have.
1. Clear, clean water.
2. Limited availability of other food resources.
3. Bluegill, or other easily feed trained fish to model after.
Sounds to me like you've got a really good situation.
