So, I'd really like to get some pbass to raise.
I know at 1''-2'' they are really hard to raise, so what would a good size to get them at be?
How much would they cost at about 3'', I'm talking about Mono's BTW.
Any help would be apreicated.
 
1-2" arnt that hard....just make sure ur water is at 28-30 degrees celcius, regular water changes, and a good diet, feed BW, feeders guppies, untilthey hit 4" then get em on prawns or pellets!
 
Ok cool.
I might try my hand at Pbass then.
LFS near by has 1-2'' for $10
 
they like company when theyre that young.
like opiate said,keep the temp high,feed live.
they get much more hardy around 5 inches.
they grow about inch plus per mth.
 
Ok cool.
Before I get them I'm going to put a bunch of white cloud minnows in the tank for them to snack on.
 
hi there
