Your peacock bass

[koolio9870]

How long does it take your peacock bass to get use to the tank and start eating when you first pick them up?

 

[Chizzle]

A few hours - a couple days

 

[gangster]

all depends on the fish....and size of the fish.

Like chizzle said...could be an hr-few days.

well he was fed at the pet store 5:20, has just eaten live food, that was last night at about 6:30 put him in the tank, its an hour drive took till 9 to breath a bit slower, this morning breathing normal, put blood worm cube in the tank to see if he would eat a little and he ate just a couple floating around as far as I could tell, too busy watching all the fish.

i got numerous shipped to me. took 3 days to arrive. a couple ate right out of the bag. the rest took half a day. there's one however who didn't eat anything and stayed hiding. found him dead a couple of days after. most of mine is still in hiding except feeding time, they all come out like the beast they are LOL

Im sure it depends on the habits they have been taught,my guys obviously
Only ate fry or guppies,and were really shy untill i put some small tiger barbs in with them

3 days tops, unless its being harassed by other tankmates.

my mono went on a massive hunger strike. He didn't eat for over a month.
