    Cichla ID Needed

    Hello, I bought two peacock bass a few months ago from petzone tropical online labeled as cichla kelberi. I can definitely say that they are not kelberi, they look like temensis...but not completely like temensis, I'm seeing more gold in these then that which I have seen on temensis. I think...

    Cichla Update #2

    So Nitro's been getting bigger, off of the Hikari carnivore pellets and shrimp pellets I've been feeding him. He's not as crazy as he used to be, but he's right up at the front of the tank when it's feeding time. He's afraid of my datnoid-my small, shy datnoid-for some odd reason. He's an...

    Peacock Bass Growth Update #1

    I started a growth thread for my pbass, Nitro, a little over a month ago, so I thought I'd update you all on his status. He's grown a little in the a-little-over-a-month-long period. I've turned him off of live food as suggested, and he enjoys eating Hikari sinking carnivore pellets. He gets...

    Azul peacock bass pricing

    Found some at the LFS for around 80$ at 6". Is this a good price? I've been looking other places. But all the other selling posts I've seen were from like 2010. And the fish market changes a lot.

The water quality is pristine (0 ammonia 0 nitrate...

    Ideal Peacock Bass Live Food Alternatives?

    I've read that peacock bass are daytime hunters; I know that's true, as far as live fish go. What about pellets? Because my fish go through live food in a matter of a few days, getting live food all the time will become expensive. The pellets I've attempted feeding my juvenile peacock bass are...
