Do not starve more than 3 weeks. Up to 3 is ok, but no longer.

2. MP is the best to pump them up. size depend on how much they eat i guess.
3. key to training them to eat SW = starve

cheers.
Thanks bro STT for tips... very true cos they became stable whenever they chase for food or fight. As for food, guess its not so bad cos at least my ITs are taking MP. Previously they only eat livefood. SW will be difficult cos there won't be any left over to train them cos of the parrots and SD. MY ITs are not interested at all with SW. Thanks again.

My 2 ITs...



The one on the left is alway stable, even when lights out. While the other one is only stable when chasing one another or after eating . Both are on mp diet only. Well, as they said, ITs are unpredictable.

Dare not try ST yet as the size seen here in AF forum or even SG are all gaint sizes (>10"); a bit worry my aro cannot tahan .
