Awesome.. 10 in bluegill and 3 in hybrid bass

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
That's a huge bluegill, what size tank do you have those fish in? How are they adapting? I find that larger older fish have a much more difficult time adjusting to captivity than young fish.
 
UPDATE: The bluegill is still alive and eating. The bass I found out was a chesapeke or a hudson strain which had broken bars because wipers don't live in Massachusetts. The bass isn't eating however.... (I'm feeding earthworms)

Uhh... I hope no one raids my hosue lol. Its not legal to take a bass that small.

(What happened to the edit button?? lol)

The bluegill and the bass are both in a 55 right now. I put them in a 5.5 for photographing then I put them back in the 55.

The bluegill is eating the eathworms I'm putting in, but the bass isn't eating.
 
Try some rosys for the bass. I just got a 10in sunfish the other day and he just demolishes them.
 
Thats wierd, you would think they would be all over them.
 
That bluegill might be intimidating to him. Bluegill are nasty I would watch out. He might be the reason your bass isn't eating.

actually... they are the best od friends... Whenever I walk near the tank, the bass likes to huddle behind the bluegill.
 
I have no clue then?
