I am pretty sure that is what he is.

My orino in the photo was wild caught out of columbia. I had an orino that died the other day due to ick. I treated it with tank buddies ick clear medication and it made my bass go blind. It died the day after. I was told peacocks are scaleless fish. Is that true ?

If I do get an ick infestation again what is the best treatment to cure without blinding or killing my fish.

Need the experts on this. THANKS

I do have AP-PRO Aquari-sol for ick. Whats the opinion of that for treating peacock bass infected with ick ?

You must have a rio meta orino. I will get the name of the ick meds I use. And pbass are not scale less. They have tiny scales.

 

[BigUmbeeFan]

Thanks for getting back with the info.

Have any adult photos of rio meta orinos ?

Ever hear of pbass going blind from ich meds like tank buddies ich clear ?

What is the max size length and weight of this type orino ?

I know I have a lot of ?'s but I'm new to pbass and I don't want to lose this 1 like the other.

I would be grateful if someone could ID this PBass. I am pretty sure it's Ocellaris, but just want to get the "pro's" opinions.

Thanks!
