Help me identify the pbass

[Mohith Rajeek]

Hi guys .. I bought a pair of peacock bass from my lfs today for a handsome price .. both are about 3.5" .. have placed them in a quarantine tank of 55g .. have a 250g and will be going to 450g in a month .. so want to add new fish .. I feel they are pbass - cichla temensis .. please correct me if i am wrong .. and some advice will be good regarding raising them so young
