weird bass bump again

[sillygoose]

After talking with other family members, it turns out that the bass ate a bunch of shrimp pellets. We have a large brittle star (over 12 inches from arm to arm -- aka the kraken) that we feed the pellets to. Apparently the other day, the bass was hitting on them voraciously before they hit the ground.

Does anyone know...Is there any hope that my chalk bass will get over this impaction? Digest or pass the pellets? Is there anything I can do?

If he swallowed em whole it will take awhile for moisture to get them softened. Feed soft wet foods like brine shrimp, it should pass but might did some damage that should heel up.
