First PBass.. Too small for ID? Also a ?

[AHoskins]

Here are some photos of my new PBass. I also have a question about the one in the last 4 pics.

Ok and here is the one I have the question on. Is he sickly looking or normal? He appears to have a longer tail then the other 2 and a bit skinnier even though he eats. I am wondering if I should return him and get another.

Bottom one in the last 2 photos.

Any ideas?

Looks a bit sick, maybe has a parasite? What are they eating?

Hikari Cichlid Gold, frozen blood worms and fd brine shrimp.

Certainly a good thing that he's on dead food. I'd just try to feed a bit more and fatten him up.

Going to start feeding him 3 times a day until he shows signs of being healthier. Then drop back down. Just fed some bloodworms and he ate em up.

I think just keep him fed, and he should recover. And very good phots. They should be on the photo lounge.

I'll take some and post them over there. Mainly wanted to post these to get input on the skinny one.

Only had them a few days. I'll fatten them up nicely and get them on different kinds of food.

How much does the Sunken belly eat?

I would see if you can get them to eat frozen mysis. 60% protien.. Is in my opinion the next best thing to live for these guys, if that is the route your going. Nothing compares! NOTHING! In my opinion.
