Wow, that ones REALLY thin! JUst bulk him up a bit. Their not that hard to feed, i had mine on shrimp and pellets. Just watch out though, mines was only 2 ft and it still packs quite a punch at that size!
 
some can be very picky but most will eat shrimp, worms, crayfish and live fish other foods may be excepted but they get big and arn't to active but who doesn't like a fish that can shock stuff
 
i didnt pick him up, im scared he is a little too thin... what price should he go for? hes about 12 to 14 inches..
