I caught several baby bass. But some died during the trip :(. So now i'm left with 1. He/she is about .75 inches long. What should i feed it?
 
dried bloodworms, dried shrimp.
 
not to attack you, but did you legaly aquire them? alot of states have lenth limits on them and if netted is also againts the law unless you got them from a private pond where the state did no help in stocking it or bought it from a store

but worms, guppies, ghost shrimp, black worms. try to get them on pellets as soon as possible
 
I caught it with my hands cupped together in a local lake? Im hoping its legal, no net used so i'm good?
 
ok, i was looking around and might get pinhead crickets? smaller than 1/8 inch. fruit flies, bloodworms maybe? And hes eating a little fish food, it looks like he got fatter then when i caught him 2 days ago! Theres also small snails in the tank. Theres alot of snail eggs, do you think he ate them? Or maybe the baby guppy fry?
 
good luck keeping this guy at such a small size! definetly feed him bloodworms and brine shrimp. lets see some pics of the little guy!
 
frozen mysis shrimp are good too.
 
The little guy's doin great! He is swimming all around, grew a bit about .10 of an inch. He is eating cyclops ease, loves that stuff if thats how you spell it? He eats some flake food but really digs in on the cyclops.As far as picks i have a hard time takin pics of my 3in shell dwelling cichlids let alone a clear colored 1in bass. Im still not sure on the type of fish but im callin it a bass cuz it is about time for baby bass to swim around and it has a black line running down him.
