Peacock Bass pointers or tips?

[kendragon]

I bought five 2in temensis a month ago and now there's only 1 left... If they want to die, they'll just die. Scumbags these fishes are... lol.

That's not good.

Sorry, that did come out that way. I should have quoted the OP as I meant it more as an answer to him.

From what i read, and my few weeks experience with the peacock bass i have. If you have got them to eat steady already. The hardest part is over. I started with 3 and im down to 1. The other 2 just refused to eat anything. So the 1 just pigged out and is doing wonderful. When they start getting closer to there mature size. It would be crowded to have even 2 in 220g in my opinion. Even if you only endup with 5. I wouldnt want to put them in anything less then 750gal. But thats my opinion.

Hey everyone thanks for feed back its looking like im going to need a bigger tank LOL

3 fx5 pumps are 150 Watts most sump pumps will run more wattage. I still prefer a sump, auto water changer and filter socks and life is great.

Why would you??? What a pain in the donkey to clean... I own FX5s and I would never put three on one tank to replace a sump. Plus the power consumption.
