? for p.Bass keepers

[jjollie]

I am setting up a 90 gallon tank as a grow out tank the fish will go in a 305 gallon in 6 or so months the fish so far is an
Silver arowana
P. Armatus
my question is how many P.Bass can I have with them?

Much of that is going to depend on how large the two existing fish are, and how good your filtration is. Those bass had better be at least the same size as that payara. Peacock really do best in groups too, so three at minimum (provided there's room for them at all).

Check out http://www.aqadvisor.com/ and put in the numbers for your fish, tank, and filtration, it'll help give you some idea what to expect.

Well I have none of them right now

do a group of 4 or so... make sure there bigger then the army or same size when put in the big tank. or else there gonna be nice feeders.

OK thanks that should not be a problem maybe I will grow out a arowana and a handful of p.bass in the 90 gallon first and get them in the larger tank and get the army later

 

[heatherbeast]

I think that is the best approach.

I would be careful with an arow and an army ... What size are they?

 

[jjollie]

don't have them yet, careful in that they will take out the p.bass?

 

[SandNukka15]

As in the army could take out the arow and maybe even the bass
