Hello everyone. I currently have 1 peacock bass in a grow out tank. I just bought one to start out with because I have not raised a young fish or bought a tropical fish in several years and I wanted to make sure I still remembered how lol (I have been keeping fish the whole time, just had not gotten anything new). I would like to get a few more bass and possibly a few other species to go with him. Right now the tank is currently at 84-85 degrees which is still a little lower then people suggest for young bass but he seems to be doing good. My question is since I'm planning on adding a few more fish what should I do about the temperature difference since the lfs tanks would most likely be around 78 and may cool down a couple degrees on the way home? Can a fish handle a 6-8 degree temperature change if acclimated properly? I don't want to stress my bass out by lowering the temp then raising it again unless that would be the best option? Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance,
-John
