Here are a couple of pics of my mono. His color isn't too great in the pics, but they are just after he was released into the tank. He stayed up in the top corner for about an hour, then ended up eating 2 jumbo shrimp when I fed my arowanas.

I've always been fascinated with Cichla, but this is my first venture into actually owning a Peacock Bass, so I'm looking forward to the ride. :D

Any comments or tips from the vetrens will be appreciated.

wow, great specimen! I am surprised he didn't go on a hunger strike for lack of feeders. Very lucky!

LOL...I was surprised too. I got him from Sticky_Rice and the bass were eating shrimp for him so that definitley cuts out a lot of work for me...

...just the way I like it. :D
 
nice.. really healthy looking.. is the second picture taken with a flash?
 
very nice mono. great to hear it's already taking prepared foods.
 
Thanks for the comments everyone...he's really starting to color up nicely. I'll try to get some more shots.
