I've had 2 osc Pbass ones around 6" the other is 4-5" and they wont hit the top of the water when i feed them feeders, They will just hide the whole time. Is it because theres only 2 pbass or is it because they are still not sure if they can trust me or not?

im trying to do the feeder than shrimp method but i cant do that untill they hit the top of the water.
 
It could be that they are not adjusted yet... or that there isn't enough competition for them to crush the top of the water...
 
I love that second part. If this is the case maybe 2 more Pbass lol. I'll give them a couple more weeks and if they dont crush the top of the water than im grabbing some monos or something
 
Sounds like a plan! Do they come to glass when you feed yet?
 
My two 7" monos hit like lmb on pellets so I don't think it's the numbers. I think it's not being adjusted yet or they are spooked for some reason. Perhaps over feeding?
 
I feed them 2 feeders every other day. so over feeding isent it. I miss my lmb he hit like no tomorrow. The larger Pbass comes to the tank some times but when i grab the net hides like no tomorrow.
 
Will do, but I wanted to get atleast 4 Pbass anyway so this is just an reason for it :) lol.
 
How long have you had them?
