Peacock Bass Thread

[Bassman42]

Are there any Cichla keepers on this forum? I see a lot of pictures of African cichlids, I personally keep large South/Central American's. The larges of witch are my Pbass. I have kept Cichla now for about 4 or so years and they are by far my favorite fish. So I wanted to start a thread of pictures of my Cichla. Some of the pictures may be old shots, but the fish were mine. So, these are not internet search pics. It would be awesome if you Cichla keepers posted your Pbass pics here too! I have so many more pictures if any one wants to see more.

Nice pics, kinda wish i still had some cichla.. I love my rays but my pbass were WAY less work and food bill was way less too. Love the Orino's though.

I would love to fish the Amazon River for Peacock Bass! Those guys are savage, and will crush big ugly top water baits.

Thanks, I thought that there would be more pictures of other memebers Pbass. I guess there are only a couple of Cichla keepers on the forum, oh well.

I have these posted on other parts of the site but I figured it would be cool to have all pbass pics in one thread

Hey Ashley, Did you get your Orino from a kid on MFK called Mahmahman or something?

Yep, sure did! We couldn't pass up that blue color! I love it!

 

[Bassman42]

Yeah, I almost bought that one also.

My soon to be monster. Only about 5 inches so far but he is growing fast!

 

[Ashley]

^^^ HALP that one is going to be a stunner. Awesome!

 

[Bassman42]

Wow bro, that's the baby I sold you? You're doing a good job there!

 

[HALP]

Thx! Its not really fair for the other fish. He is like 5x faster and gets all the food.

I remember the first time i have ever seen those fish. I think Roland martin was fishing for them. It seriously looks like someone took a paintbrush to'em and just went at it.

They look awesome!

[Bassman42]
