Ummm.... an omnivore is a term for an animal that eats meat and non-meat. As in herbivore and carnivore.

There is some constructive criticism.

Guys.......We are talking about Bass here.

I agree with everyone!

There is nothing wrong with just feeding the Bass live feeders.

There is also nothing wrong with someone gettin their Bass on Pellet food.

Either way your doing right by your Largemouth Bass because its healthy and growing.

I know people who feed their Bass pellets, but once in a while treat them to some hearty liver or worms or live feeders.

Either way as long as your Bass is healthy thats all that counts. Dude sometimes if my Bass is hungry and I cant get feeders, I just go the backyard and get pig bugs and spiders and earthworms and dump it inside the tank and then I watch the Bluegill and Largemouth Bass gobble up everything.

They are super healthy and strong. :headbang2

In nature Bass eat anything that fits in their mouth.....

herbivore, forager same thing you got the message. herbivores forage for food. watch dsc channel more often, cause we know the school things not working for you...lol :ROFL:

xspainx69 is right many foods is best and live foods should be used in its diet. any thing that fits in its mouth...anything. just dont give him hotdogs or other processed foods, keep it fresh and fat free(fat spoils the water quick) beef heart, shrimp, or whole frozen(thawed) fish :naughty:

...and lots of live foods goldfish, frogs, small mice, large insects, baby birds, etc... :popcorn:

Man, I really hate to beat a dead horse, but I think schooling is a necessity in your world, not mine.
Foraging has NOTHING to do with what is being eaten. Forage simply means to "search" as opposed to "hunt". A forager can be a herbivore, carnivore, or omnivore.
A hunter, on the other hand, can only "hunt" for carnivorous food as I don't recall seeing trees, leaves, or bushes running around lately. A hunter may dabble on an herbivore diet and could therefore be considered an omnivore.
Knowledge is power.
Sorry for the derail here.

My adult largemouth eats mostly feeders. But he LOVES any kind of lunch meat rolled up. He will dart out of any of his favorite hiding places to take the meat right out of my hand!bass are by far my most favorite fish in my collection! Almost like having a puppy in a weird fish way!
