i recently purchased 3 baby peacock bass and they havent eaten yet. I got them yesterday, it was the same day they were delivered to the store. They are still really jumpy and seem to be really stressed. How long does it normally take them to get used to it all and start eating again? i have been trying to feed them black worms. there were some guppies in there last night but they are gone so hopefully they ate them...dunno what else would have happened to them...i dunno
 
Keep trying guppies.
 
my peacock bass ate within 2 minutes of being placed in a grow out tank. They munched on the 4 small zebra danios i had in the tank to help cycle it earlier.

They love guppies tho, keep trying that. Mine have no interested in anything not moving yet.
