I came across a pair of peacock bass in a local fish store 2 years back and decided to give it a go... 1 didnt make it, swim bladder issues (i probably overfed :cry: ) But heres my 15" pbass. Not sure of the subspecies or whatever... but he's my pet!!! awesome fish. Always get the :WHOA: look from friends when they come over and check him out. I got a channel cat in there tooo. You can barely see him peeking out from the driftwood. Just thought I'd share.

that is a HUGE pbass! nice job!
 
Thanks guys, I got him 2 years ago when he was just about 1.5-2" long. He grew quick. I started the two pb's out in a 55gal. In the first year he grew to 12" so I got a 75gal until I could figure out the end tank size. I was debating between the plywood tank and an above ground pond with a waterfall. I think im set on a plywood tank. I have the glass taken apart from the old 55 I housed them in prior to this 75. Gonna use one pane for the viewing window. Still getting the plans set for it. Only gonna be about a 3-400 gallon tank in the end though. NOWHERE near as big as the MONSTER ROOM-SIZE tanks I see here. Right now. I have the 75 gal hob filter and a 800gph pool filter doing the cleanup work. Im currently setting up another 55gal for a QT for feeders.
 
Yeh nice ocell you should get a bigger tank and add more more pbass...
