Just recently our Three temensis peacock bass have formed a pack and have attacked my jack dempsey,lima cats,and who knows whats next.Any fish that can handle a pack of peas??Or should the tank just be all peacock Bass?Its a 300 gallon tank.The peas are 14 to 20 inches.The jack dempsey is 8 inches and the lima cat is 14 inches and they still tryed to eat them??
tank mates for pea's???

tankmates of at least 2/3 the length of the pbass would normally be OK. or tankmates that are considerably wide. Although i think that if the bass are hungry enough, they will attempt to eat anything. An all pbass tank sounds nice considering they are in the same size range.
Got to have the size but really depends on the fish I have two large tems and my large arrow would bully them around all the time and nip at them for no reason...I just got rid of her last night...Ive had all kinds of tank mates plecos, red tails etc seem to be the best
do you think our TSN is in trouble then??he is 12 inches .They have been together since they were three inches but so were the limas and the dempsey.
Im pretty sure a pacu would be fine, assuming it is bigger than what can fit into the pbass mouth. Pacus are shaped differently so not so easy to eat unless its piece by piece.
