Hi,
i was wondering what the differences are between captive bred and wild peacock bass? Is there a size difference? Colors? Rate of growth? Will a captive bred Tem get the same size as a wild caught one?
 
Wild bred cichla tend to be favoured over captive bred due to colour, size and overall attitude/agression.. its also been reported though that wild caught cichla are harder to wean off of live food..
