my new gt

[minimonsterkeeper]

I just got an 8" green terror. Im adding it to my peacock bass tank. The cichla range from 5-7". I have read that they will be fine together but i was wondering if you guys have experience with this mixture. Here's a couple shots of my new gt. I think it is a great looking fish. I really like the lips.

nice looking fish. What size tank are they in with the Cichla.

Nice color on that guy.

180 gallon for now 6ftx2ftx2ft. Soon to upgrade to 300+. I still haven't decided what dimensions i want to get. They have plenty of room for now, but it wont be long and the cichla will be to large for the 180.

Thanks. I think his/her color is great too. Still not sure on the sex. Im not really big on cichlids other than cichla, but when i saw this gt i had to have it.

Always through about getting one of these guys. Kind of reminds me of some saltwater fish when I take a quick glance.

Awesome looking fish mate it's a stunning specimen gotta be happy with that score. Almost 100% sure you got a male there too. Should be fine in a 180 n then 300 with cichla, sounds like you'll have plenty of room. Although I have never kept pbass before so don't know what they'ed be like if 2 ended up pairing off though. Awesome fish either way.

Awesome looking GT there.

I believe its a male. I think i see the start of a hump. I also agrre about it looking like a saltwater fish. Kind of reminds me of a saltwater parrot fish. The ol lady told me she saw no scuffling between the gt and the cichla today so thats a good sign. The addition of the pellet trained gt has got my small gar eating floating pellets now, which is awesome. Hopefully he'll pellet train the cichla as well.
