Peacock Bass Feeding -- Cichla Ocellaris (Florida Spangled Bass)

Feeding of three Florida Peacock Bass from John (Snookn21) by way of Michael (BassinMike85).

-Tank is 135 gallon Grow Out

-Bass range in size from ~9" - 10". Large bass is extremely spangled, the bass that eats EVERYTHING is a very pretty olive color with very nice/bright ocellae, and the small bass is an amazing green with stunning golden spangles.

-Fed several feeders*, frozen silversides, frozen bloodworms.

*I don't normally feed live feeders, but after introducing the largest bass to the tank, it hadn't eaten in about a week. The feeder minnows were long quarantined by me and were only used to spark the apetite of the larger bass. They were only used for this ONE feeding and now the larger bass eats frozen silversides no problem. In fact, it took silversides immediately after the feeders.
