peacock bass with chin growth

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
He obviously DOESNT know whats going on.

He even has the nerve to suggest that I dont know anything... let alone anything about cichla. THAT is an ignorant comment.

Your FOOL of a fishkeeper asked what the "bump" was on the cichlas jaw. This is an irritation brought on by rough abuse to the area. Usually happens by netting the fish and then introducing it to a new tank. It also will come on when the fish rams the glass/decor durring feeding or times of stressful jolting.

permanent and usually is if its sevier.

It is quite common in specimens housed in small tanks. oh and a 150 IS a small tank, ESPECIALLY FOR ANY SPECIES OF CICHLA.

Feeding does not automatically mean "fine" or "happy".

Alot of fat people eat when they are depressed.


also, I DID ASK. and i got a ****ty remark from your unknowledgable fishkeeper friend, there was no reason for his reply.

Also, DONT AUTOMATICALLY RULE OUT TANK SIZE.

YOU THINK its ok, but its NOT. Sure, his bump was probably from the netting.. but if it does not go away with in a couple weeks then its probably from hitting the glass.

PLEASE....let him live.

Other than tank size and and netting...

There isnt another reason. If there was, I would have said so.
