Got my first P Bass last night.

My search to get P Bass for myself here in Regina officially came to fruition last night.

I have tried for easy 2 years to get some and much to my shock last night when I went to visit a buddies fish room last night he had 6 of them that just came in from Peru. Freshly caught and I have no idea how he got them as all of the suppliers I tried would not ship here as their P Bass I was told were for their more regular customers.

I will post up some pics in a bit.

I also want to use the thread to document them as I grow them out.

Here are the pics from last night






last one is a different pattern than the others.

What I was thinking was dang these guys have shrunken bellies I really hope I can get them on the pellets that I have. I tried some flake and a few other things and nothing. However when I dropped in Extreme Big Fella 3mm pellets they hit them instantly.

I always wondered why you cichla guys were so enamored with this fish and after seeing their interaction I can understand why.

What I am looking forward to is seeing how they transform from what they are now to what they will be like as adults.

The FH gets moved in about an hour and the botia is also going to get moved as it seems to be a fin nipper.

the last one is like that on both sides
