Hey all,

Just wondering if a 8x2.5x2 is big enough for keeping a pair or trio of pbass.

Cheers

Yep it's a good size mate.

Awesome, thanks mate.

Just got a couple if Q's on them.

Around how much would a Monoculus Pbass around 10-15cm?

What's the best food for them?

Would it be possible to fit any other fish in the tank?

Cheers

Inspiration ??

Two Pbass
One male stingray (as they stay a lot smaller than females)
Eight to ten Myleus rubripinnis (red spot). Redhook.

Adding anything else will spoil this concept.

All three species will take up three separate layers in the aquarium.
Contrast in color and shape will be outstanding.

They naturally occur together also. (roughly)

I have kept what Buccal has metioned above. Works well and looks great!

 

Highly Agree.

Sorry guys, not fan of red hooks and rays are just too $$$$. One day I'll get some.

What level of the tank do peacock bass go in?

I have these fish that are in other tanks available to go in the 8 foot:

Jack Dempsey pair
Oscar Pair
Jaguar
Red Devil
Green terror pair
Goldspot pleco
Synodontis Decorus
Synodontis Eupterus

Would any of those be compatible with pbass?

depends on their size, if the oscars, jag, devils and GT's are all 15cm+ then ud be fine.
