Are there are peacock bass species that will fit in a 90 with CA/SA cichlids? Also, I heard that they stink up the water because their body emits it thorugh their skin, is this true?
 
No a peacock pass will not be able to live in a 90 for life. You might get a year out of a Mono, but they will reach 2'.
 
There is no cichla specie that will fit in a 90.
 
Sorry...no can do. You could keep him in there till about a foot long (1 year or so) but then have to either upgrade to a bigger tank or give him away/sell him!
 
even a 1 foot fish is pushing it in a 90 which is only 18 inches wide. That is why I am planning on upgrading this summer to at least a 24 inch wide tank the height of a 90 doesn't do the fish any good most of the time.:(
 
WEll, what you can do is, grow out the pbass and sell it here. Alot of people here's gonna buy that fish.
