ah good, it just confused me cus they were always with eachother lol then after eatin oscar chased him. oh and my other peacock bass died after not eating anything which really suked, but i picked up a new 1 today at a diff lfs that had him on sale for 2.99 because was last 1 left and he klooks good for his size he is in my 20 gallon atm till i can get him a lil bigger and is eating well, i have no clue wat species he is looks like my other 1 but is alot darker colors considerin he is prob 2 inches the most ill post some pics in a lil bit.
 
sadly these are the best pics i could take of him he is a little shy around me atm, and for some reason every picture i take of this tank comes out bad :(, he looks nothin like my other peacock bass and guy a lfs said it was a lukanani peacock bass but i looked up on internet to find out no such thin.

lukanini is just another name for peacock bass. the new guy looks good
 
again 1 more question don't want to start another thread. Is a 350 gallon tank big enough for a temensis peacock bass? also how many fish maximum are u looking at in a 350gallon tank when they are fully grown? How many peacock bass can go into a 350 gallon tank so that live unstressful life when fully grown.
 
tems get big but over time... keep that in mind. they get 3 and half feed. if you get monos or orinos you can fit a few in a 350 when they are full grown.. even a 280g

dont feed your cichla beef heart at all.. ;)
 
ya thats why im debating on buying a 500gallon or more stock pond to put on the floor in my basement or buying a 350 gallon glass tank, stuck between which to do.
