upgrading to 300g wide

[smdsatx]

the tank is 72''x36''x27'' 300 gallons with two fx5. I currently have 1 silver arowana 18'' two tiger oscars 12''. I want to get some peacock bass. How many can i put in the 300g along with my other fish? i plan to get them and grow them in my 150g until they get big enough to be put in the 300g with the other fish. How fast do peacock bass grow? any advice on peacock bass welcomed! thanks

you could have five or six just depends on how much you like water changes.i have eight in a 180 right now in there growout plus 1 oscar 1 blood parrot and two rotkiel sevs ..three canisters on it .The bio is about maxed at this stage i do two 1/3 water changes a week .All the bass are 12 inch or better another 100 gallons would do ya for another year or so..I have had the bass and all the dithers for one year bought as fry .....One thing to add Unless you find a way to expand your bio witch there are lots of ways get creative....
