    Well, as I’m bored at work (yet again) I think I’ll start another thread 😛 I have been feeding my two terps (both a little over an inch) foodsticks, which they seem to like and occasional frozen brine shrimp, which they don’t seem to like. I was wondering how else I should be feeding them, as the foodsticks seem very bland (akin to humans eating bran flakes :-). Is there a rule of thumb which tells me when they are big enough to start eating other things such as feeder fish, smelt, other seafood? How fast are they likely to grow? Is it strange for them to prefer tupperware to gladware basking sites :P? Any clues about their feeding and growth habits would be awesome! -Dan P.S. Please let me know if my posts get annoying 🙂
