ATTN: Post your Peacock Bass pix here

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Danh, I hate to prove you wrong but Orino are definitely available in Asia. Some were already crossed with Monoc from what I know. Have you notice the Orinos have been quite affordable of late?
 
Give them ample food supply and they breed all year round in tropic ponds. I have witnssed Mono breed in pH 8.5! Those research papers talk about how habitat loss threatened their existence. I serioulsy doubt it, it is more like overfishing.

That's what I thought. But I do agree with Dan that TFD doesn't get any kind of rare pbass in.
 
From all that I have heard they are AVAILABLE in Asia.. of course. I'm not saying there are none there. I'm saying they're not being mass bred to the point that we'd be seeing a ton of orino crosses coming out of there. I do believe there is a guy on mfk from Singapore that says he is having a hard time finding orinos.
I'm not saying that I've got something amazingly rare that no one else is going to have. I'm just saying that from what I know, I wouldn't think it's a temxorino.. Although it doesn't look totally unlike what I would think a temxorino would look like. That being said, it's not really PROVING ME WRONG, since I don't claim to be right. I welcome any other information.
 
i know you guys seen these pics already... my thread was moved to the photo lounge, so... i might as well post them in the peacockbass thread! mono, ocellies & orinco's:headbang2
