Great thread I read recently has some good info on feeders and nutrition. Had me reading up. The Piranha Nutrition Thread Also had me looking for Thiamine (B1) containing foods and good warning to me regarding freeze dried minnows/ thiaminase. Not sure the freeze dried process neutralizes this...

So just saw these two 4” arowanas at my lfs. Just wondering if i’m correct to say that this is a jardini (dark color, reddish/green sheen): and this one is a lei (light, silver green sheen): Also, are jardinis compatible to house with some peacock bass?

So I have an empty 36 gallon bow front tank rn and I wanna put a fish in there that I can grow out before tranfering it to my 250(I’m in the process of building the 250 because my 225 is currently being used for a salt setup and I don’t want to add any more fish to my 350). I want to keep these...

Greetings all. Picked up 3 baby peacock bass yesterday from LFS no id on species. They are about 2.5 - 3 inches. They are in my 180 gallon tank so they have plenty of room for now. They have taken bloodworms so far will eventually go for pellet conversion. Sorry no pics as I dont have whatever...

I'm currently growing out 2 baby pbass (3.5 inch and a 4 incher ocell/mono farmies) with 3 similar sized tinfoils in a 40 gal. My local lfs just brought in some baby orinocos which i've been looking for for some time. The problem now is that the baby orinocos are quite small, about 2-2.5 inch...

I got my bass just over two weeks ago. I am pretty sure he is a cichla Ocellaris, but not positive yet... LFS did not know. Over the past week, he has grabbed one small piece of shrimp and one small food stick but spit them out faster then he grabbed them. I give him 3-4 little feeder guppies...

So I know that naming fish is for girls lol. But my wife kind of got me into it. Lol. I call these guys my (Bass) Terds. I got them on July.7 after seeing them 3 days earlier. At the time it was extremely hard to find any in my city. Every time an lfs would get them they would be gone in a...

I have a couple 5" or so peacock bass (a couple Azuls and a couple Monos) the past couple days one of my monos seems like he is having severe seizures, and then suddenly goes back to semi-normal behavior - looks slightly flushed and hides in driftwood which isn't exactly typical for him. He also...

I've had my current 60g (long) tank up and running since last summer. Despite my taste for large fish, my current stock is doing very well together. My current stock is as listed below: x1 Common Plecostomus x1 Azul Peacock Bass x1 Polypterus Endlicheri x1 Silver Arowana (Surprise!) Please keep...

Hello guy, I just bought these kelberi bass babies. They are just 3 inches long. But i have no idea about how to feed them. After 1 day i fed them frozen bloodworms. But they all rejected. Then i fed them some little guppies and ate fine. But im planing to feed them fresh shrimps (not live)...

I've had him for a while now, and I've still been wavering on the species ID. I'm not 100% sure, but I'm thinking Tem. Thoughts?
