took me 3 days to get my pbass off feeders and onto silversides. Just wondering if feeding him an all silverside diet is good enough? He can't eat the bigger ones yet so i can't pellet stuff them. Also saw ocell at my lfs for 6.99. Are there any big differences between ocell and mono? Should i get the ocell?

Well i am fairly new to pbass still myself.But i would say your good until about 6 to 8 inches on the siversides.But would still continue trying to get him to eat other things.Try tilapia fillet i thaw a piece in tank water in a cup.Slice into long thin pieces re freeze a little throw in a silverside wait until he eats it then throw in a pice of tilapia.You could even roll the tilapia in smashed pellot!!!!to get him used to the taste of pellot.Why not get one at that price.

yeah im thinking about it, trying to get a few different variety of pbass into a community tank. I'll probably get two of them. thanks for the tip on the tilapia, will try that.
