Made a rescue, probably shouldnt have

Peacock bass actually make good gamefish. I've seen a lot of fishing shows with guys in the amazon who catch 2 foot 15 lb peacock's...I've always wanted to go fishing for them.

Very nice CFC...how do you think the blind one is going to do in a tank full of predators ? Maybe a better pic of the blind one

They have also been stocked in lakes and canals throughout South Florida.

Alright you two! Don't make me pull the car over!
(If ever there were two excellent, yet more completely different fishkeepers, I don't think I've met them...)

Back on topic, I just wanted to point out that it takes one bad catfish to beat 2 peacock bass into submission. Then I read this quote from Practical Fishkeeping: "The Helicopter catfish, Wallago attu, weighs as much as seven Jack Russell terriers or 45,000 Neon tetras when it's fully grown."

Why in the world do people put a fish that reaches 2m and weighs 100lbs into a fishtank?

Maybe they are allergic to animal fur and need a guard dog?


Actually i have no idea either, the true giants should be left where they belong, in the wild.

Excellent Fish CFC. I went and had a look at some pics of a Wallago attu and found this: I definately wouldn't put my hand in a tank with one of these!!

 

[Kajuki18]

What size tank do you have to house those guys?

 

[Adistar]

Good luck with the fish CFC. shame someone would put them in their with a catfish like that!


Good luck
