Outdoor pond

[e!o!z!]

What temptures can p-bass live in? Why I ask could the live in an outdoor pond( large pond,cattle water tank) in north Alabama are would it get to cold for them.

the coldest that they can be is like 70 degrees and thats probably pushing it, thats why you can only find them in south florida.... I heard that they planted some in Hawii as well!!!

has to be a heated pond.... cattle pond ? like a farm pond in alabama oo mee seems like it will be extremely cold and they well deff not live. hawii are not planted there.... those babies are wild!!!!!!!!! wild wild wild wild cichla and amazing ones that they are!!!!!

i wouldnt keep a cichla in anything below 75

70 is way to low

cichla prefer water that is 80-84F

 

[bOOsteN aUdI]

correct!!!!! lol and if ur heater goes up to 86 then so do it if you have cichla cause they do even better in 86 degree water... they get more vibraint and aggressive.... it makes them calmer when you are cleaning the tank ect....

My tank stays at 84-86

the ones in Hawaii are planted there. Why u sau they are not???? Peacock bass are only from South America If tehy are found if onther parts of the world in the wild then they are planted there.

Peacockbass are very sensitive to temps. That is also the reason why their range in FL is limited to the Southern part of FL only.
