After 7yrs I decided that I wanted another pbass. I know it'll out grow my tank but until then I'm gonna enjoy it. It's about 2" and eating frozen bloodworms, freeze dried bloodworms and krill. I tried frozen silversides but it spit it out. Will have to keep trying. I probably paid too much for it but then again it's not on live foods so I think it's a plus. Paid $19.99

Nice little pbass. $20 doesn't seem too much.
 
Wow...seems pretty cheap but I guess that happens when you so many cb fish available.
 
Nice! Peacock bass are awesome fish; my temensis will come up to the front of the tank and wait impatiently for me to feed him! Do you know what species you have?

Unfortunately no. Hopefully when it gets a little bigger, someone can help me Id it.
 
That's not a bad price.. Nice little bass.

I had the same issue. After a couple of months, it became more obvious he was a temensis, as he has spots now. I also read the name of the bass they were selling in the tank I bought him from; only I read that when I went to the fish store to buy my endli bichir! Mine's not that big yet-only around 3 inches-but he has the most personality of all the fish in my tank!

For some reason I'm leaning towards mono as it's seems that's most common around here but either way I think any pbass is awesome.
