Pinima grow outs
- Thread starter wheatgerm
- Start date
This one has had a small appetite. Will only take one piece of shrimp stuffed with massivore per day. The temensis that I'm growing out with this pinima eats 2 full pieces of shrimp plus about 10-12 massivore pellets per day... The tem is 8"+ and the pinima is 6"+ so in comparison to the difference in food intake the pinima is growing very quickly for as little as it eats. IMO the pinima would be every bit as big as the tem if it would just eat more.
Either way both fish have grown a lot since I've only had them since march 1st and they started around 3"
Just got mine 100% pellet trained. Slamming hikari carnisticks.

I had 1 azul like that, all my other bass eat pellets. I had to stuff tilapia or shrimp with pellet for it every day until I traded it. How long have you had your pinima?

Looking good man, I noticed in the pics you have them on bloodworms. Have you tried getting them on pellets? I always use the technique Gangster taught me, crushing pellet with bloodworms and feeding in the same spot with a spoon. Took 2 weeks for my pinima and only 1 week for my RA kelberi. Everyone is very fat on pellet and I could not be happier. Also noticed that pellets seem to take longer to digest, they got bloated off bloodworms too, but it seems to run through their system. I still notice that healthy bulge 6 hours later with pellet, but not with just bloodworm.
