How large of a pbass are we talking about?

 

[tuanxuantran]

1 is 9inch and the other 10

Also when you have maybe about 3 or 4 there is more competition so they will compete to eat

Easy for a 1 month hunger strike, and not have health issues at that size. Try live earthworms or crickets. I haven't had a smaller pbass resist defrosted bloodworms, you can try that as well

Damnnn same problem I recently got a peacock bass around 7 inches and it’s only eating feeders

I was thinking that, i have been looking around but the ones people are selling they are too small

I threw in a bunch of superworms with no affect

If you have only had them 2 days, it's nothing to worry about. They need a minimum 1 week to get settled. Fish that large can take 1 month before eating. I had a 6" wild pike take 1 month before it even took defrosted bloodworms

It starved itself to death?

It starved itself to death? So it died?

Yes it did! It was only 5-6” and he was so skinny! Had it up for free in the marketplace but it didn’t make it.
