Feeding help?

well i had my pbass for a few months now im still a kid (14) so somtimes feeding is hard and awhile ago i read up on dmacks little thing for converting and though id give it a try, but i guess i did it a little diff, i starved them for a few days maybe a week, but every day id splash the water around to see if theyd start to surround the movement, and they did so i went out and bought large krill and decided to throw a few in, i was surprised to see 1 eat it right away, then i tryed yesterday again and all 3 of them ate it, but i was wondering since they dont eat it right away and it takes them a few trys should i like wait a certain amount of days inbetween each try of feeding?

It sounds like you are on the right track although it is an unconventional way of getting there.

I would try not to starve them just feed in small amounts and remove the uneaten food after feeding time. A regular feeding schedule will benefit their behavior in the long run. Also remember to try to offer them a variety of food the more variety the happier and healthier your fish will be.

well i wasnt realy aming for starvng them i just missed feeding for a day and for awhile they've been at that point where they are suspicious at anything that touching the water, and when i walk up and sit at the front of the tank they come to me and like circle around waiting for me to drops somthing in, and i dont drop alot in i do it one by one and usually they all eat 2 fully then somtimes spit one out and it gets eatn by the pleco or jd, but i guess what i was really asking was since now i am introducing them to a different food from live foods to Freeze dried krill, should i just keep dropping in a few every day or every other day, would they get tired of whats being offered?
