    overstocked???

    I've put like 2 flakes in and as the fish goes up.... Hide the net and "whoosh"! You got'em! But then afterwards, they're scared of the food until one brave lil' fishy goes up and takes some food and slowly others will join in. It's a little cruel but it saves all the trouble
