PBass Growth .

[CrazyBoutFish]

I have a 3" Pbass feeding on shrimp. How long will it take for him/her to grow to 6" - 7"?

If your water quality and tank space is good...probably in about 2-3 months.

hmm..my tank is big enuf, water is brilliant, i feed twice daily and still my tems/monos dun grow that quick...like they grow fast but not that fast!

wow! what did you feed that monster?!

they will only eat food that runs from them, literally. I started with guppies then switched to rosies. A couple times before I had my feeder tank set up, there would be too many rosies for them to eat all at once and the left over rosies would school with the bass and as long as the rosies didn't run from them they wouldn't get eaten.

Now that I have the feeder tank, I only feed them a few at a time and always from my hand so I can get them on something else.

Do youguys think fish grow faster from eating feeders or market shrimp?

I personally think that live feeders will make them grow faster, but it's not that big of a difference to me. I'd rather get them on non-living foods.
