its fun feeding game fish live things (as in worms, etc.) and careful when you catch new stuff and put it in the tank cause it can bring parasites or what else it might have. and your fish can end up getting sick or dead. :/
i hate how when you ppl put a game fish in a tank and dont bother thinking about giving the tank a natural look! you give it this tropical look? give it a more natural enviorment! god
its like one of those scenes where the giant monster eats the super hero, but then the super hero splits the monsters neck and breaks open but here it just gets digested...
okay heres the deal i ave a bass and he's not that friendly he doesnt comw to the glass when i enter the room he just hides behind the flter any help to get him used to me
The smaller ones are easier to keep alive I've noticed. I had a 20" one and he didn't do too good in my 110gallon tank so I donated him to BassPro and now he's doing great. Just make sure it's legal to take in your state. Most of the time, there's like a 14" minimum length requirement or you'll get fined if they catch you.
@halo5549, that's fine. Lol. You're just not supposed to take them from public waters unless they're at least a certain length. Some do anyways, which is okay to me as long as they don't overdo it. Most bass fishermen don't even keep any, even if they're huge.
mine will only eat feeder fish and they get expensive, i tried feeding it worms but it wont take um even though i caught him on a worm? Do you have any suggestions. :(
haha, perhaps he has some psychological issues toward worms after being caught with one. i would try bugs, they are small but if the fish eats them you can find plenty in your yard. also if you have a pond or creek near you you could catch minnows yourself.
well maybe he is smart eneogh to know not to eat worms since thats how you caught him. you could try to use minnows either bought from a pert store or at a bait shop. you could also try crickets either bought or caught and if you live near a lake like me you can always try catching somthing that a bass would eat but make sure that whatever you feed him will fit in his mouth since i do not know how big yours is if it is big or small. i had a large mouth bass in my fish tank for six years.
Depending on the size of the bass you catch I wouldn't go any less than a 50 gallon tank. They can live for years and get quite large, and I feed it worms, feeder fish, crayfish and tadpoles. Most of which i catch on my own except for the feeder fish.
@tflinn22 Agreed, I'd also opt for a rock bass and a bigger tank though. I keep large central cichlids and my 13" Midas is much better suited for my 180 gal, in the 80 she was extremely agressive. Still can't keep her with anything though, nor would you be able to with a bass. I'd expect any bass to last 10-15 years as do the cichlids and reach the top end of the size spectrum. ex 20" smallmouth.
@GOgOsOX2005 you can buy the ordered in for specialised fish store for only about 15$ and they are much beetter than cught ones becouse you grow up in a tank
yeah, he got bigger since i first caught him, I ended up lettin him go back to his original home. He swam away on his side with one fin up waving good bye.
