Feeding my baby pbass

[Joey47]

got him 2 days ago. i can tell hes hungry but he doesnt want to put it down. so far ive tried frozen bloodworms, frozen brine shrimp and hikari pellets. any suggestions on what else i can try to feed him?

oh and im trying to stay off the guppies until last resort.


thanks.

You are going to have to feed him whatever he wants! How big is he? What are the water params? 2 days isn't bad. But if he is small don't starve him cause they are very fragile at that size.

how big is he?? you gotta take the time and wean him off live but as of right now to don't stress yourself and the fish out. There will be plenty of time getting him off live but as of right now give the guy what he wants. If your read old posts about your same frustration you will end up with the same reply. Good Luck

Nooo... Buy him live bloodworms/fd bloodworms. Mine ate that the night I bought them...

i just picked up 3 more pbass and some live worms. they love em. its pricey though.

feed em guppies til theyre 6-8".

Guppies have to be quarantined tho... He he, around here live blood worms are like $1 for like an ounce or something.
