ANYONE HAS THIS PROBLEM TOO?

hey just got 2 baby p.basses today. left them swimming in the tank for about 1 hour, and then fed them live tubifex worms. they ate it greedily.

at night about 12 hours later, i tried feeding the tubifex worms again, but this time they allowed the worms to sink to the bottom, only eating one or two.

I thought maybe they were picky eaters and only accepted live fishes, so i'm going to get baby guppies or mollies tmr from my LFS. I'll see how it goes.

my p.basses are around 2-3inches. with 2 giant snakeheads at around 2-3 inches too.

the p. basses love to chase the snakeheads around.

My orino's and mono's will eat a ton of feeders in the am, then later at night may only take 1 or 2, probably just alittle full yet. By the next morning the feeders are gone.

yup. this morning when i woke up and i fed them frozen bloodworms, they ate it greedily again.

anyway, planning to head to the LFS to get some guppies.

my monos are around 2-3 inches. anyone can show me some pictures of how big the guppy fry shld be?
