glad to see yours is doin awesome lost my lmb last night one min he was swimin 20 min later at the bottom of the tank dead. ill go catch a few more in a cpl days

Hey in Florida you can catch wild peacock bass right? Do you ever find them in the same waters inhabited by lmb?
 
Maybe your bass is hyper due to high temps? My Oscar's mood can be controlled slightly by temperature changes.

yea i have seen them in the same waters. the peacocks are in the miami and glades area cause it gets to cold anywhere else in florida even.i got this paragraph from another site. ive even seen clown knife fish in the same waters as them but only on the east coast of fl.


"Because of their sensitivity to cold, the only place on the United States mainland Peacocks have been successfully stocked has been in South Florida. Peacock Bass cannot in fact, survive any further north than Broward County or they experience a natural die off. Any further north than that despite efforts by well meaning fisherman transporting them to other locations simply has not worked "
