try rearanging his decorations a little bit next time before you tput the fish in there and also turn off the light when you put the fish in and if that diesnt work that peacock bass is one mean fellow.

That's why Cichla are classified as a piscivore. (fish eater) If it'll fit in the mouth, it's getting eaten.

my tank is heavily planted and has a large peace of drift wood so rearranging is a pretty big task and probably not the healthiest to be unrooting plants and re-planting them. Guess I have a monster tank after all. Will 2 monos out grow a 210 gallon?

why the heck are you keeping a 5" fish with a 15" bass? You're just asking for it. Even a 5" fish with a 10" bass is potential trouble depending on the fish. They're pigs and they'll try to eat anything that fits in their mouth even part way. I know a guy who lost a 12" pinima to a tem that was about 20" kinda recently.
