I'm trying to get away from feeders. I have 2 good size momos. They eat anything. I'm currently giving them frozen telapia. They love it. I have 2 other monos in another tank, because The 2 bigger ones were dominating them. They won't eat telapia or pellets. They see me coming with a bag of feeders 4' away and get all exited. You guys think they would starve to death rather than eat telapia?
 
what size are they?
 
The bigger ones have laid eggs a couple times and are aggressive. I put them in a 480gal tank with a 28" spotted shovel nose cat, a 15" red tail, and a 15" Lierius pictus. The P. bass out chase the cats for frozen fish. The other 2 P. bass are in a 270 gal tank with smaller cats 8" to 12" and a 24" jar.

The bigger ones are about 12" or 14", the smaller are about 10"

and im guessing you have issues with the smaller 10inch ones.. well rest assured if their healthy they wont die from starvation.. just keep trying with the pellets or start off with blood worms, m/shrimp etc.. you may wanna check out the sticky that dmack wrot on getting pbass off live feeders ontop of this forum.. best of luck.
