Narc's Old Peacock Bass Pair

[The TRUST]

They were very nice fish. Too bad he lost them during his move

Yes, the infamous leaky 280 gallon and the stand that wouldn't fit through the door.

Oh I didn't hear that part. what was the whole story?? I got the short short version of the movers being late.

the movers were 9 hours late, i should have went out and bought a bunch of air pumps but i had too much other crap going on. i lost around 15-20' of fish that day. the bass started spawning so i put them in a 180 by themselves and put all my other fish in my 280 for a few weeks. they had that batch in the pics (all died, couldn't get them to eat any fry food) and they had another batch of eggs (even more than the first time) but i had to drain the tank to move the fish. this all happened in september.

SUCKS!! heh. How large were they in those pics?

 

[narc]

i don't really remember. i think the male was around 15" and the female was like 13". the babies were hybrids, the dad was an ocellaris, the mother a mono.

@#$%*! movers! I bet they were moving their bowels more than your belongings.
