Crystal Posted January 11, 2020 Report Share Posted January 11, 2020 This might be an old trick in the book, but since I only just stumbled across it after so many years, I figured I'd post it here. Take a needle-less syringe. Pull the plunger out. Put pellets in (max 1/3 full) Put plunger back in, and suck water into the syringe. Turn plunger face up and evict air. (ensure there is enough water to cover pellets and then some) Put finger over plunger tip and pull plunger. Hold for 10-20 seconds. The vacuum will pull air bubbles out of the pellets. Once plunger is released, the vacuum ceases and the pellets sink. The best part is that syringes are usually less than a dollar for a 10ml, or a couple of dollars for a 100ml. A cheap solution to avoid buying those expensive sinking pellets. Perfect for those fish that don't like going to the surface to eat.
