Currently have 5 kelberis growing out in a 125 for a 240 I'm buying in a few months. They are at 2 inches a peice and their growth motivates me to set the new tank up fast.
It's interesting.. I have questions.. 1) how many times do you change water in a month ? How did you change it ? 2) is it sea water or fresh water? 3) what would happen if powers goes off ? No supply oxygen in aquarium.
I have two temensis peacocks and I got them when they were about 3 inches in December 2019. I fed them a lot and they ate a lot. They grew to almost 6 inches by the end of January and then reached 9 inches by the end of February. I continued to feed and they and their tankmates all eat like beasts. I do weekly water changes and now it is coming to the end of March and they only may have grown to 9.5 inches. I don't understand because they put on all that size (3 inches per month) and then all of a sudden it stopped. Do you know why this may have occurred and how can I fix it so they grow again?
Brock Mason I’m not acting like a pro on Peacock Bass but it is either because their tank is small enough that it stunts their growth or maybe it’s in their genetics to do a sudden growth spurt at the beginning of their lives so they don’t get eaten by the huge predators in the Amazon. I had Largemouth Bass and they grew really fast at the beginning and then it slowed down when they got to about 6 inches and that was in a 55 gallon long. They can still have plenty of room to swim and their bodies will still tell them that it’s too small to grow anymore, whereas in open water or a lake, they will grow to their maximum. I use this theory : I can be the same age as you but each one of us can be bigger or smaller than each other and the same thing with every living creature, it boils down to genetics. Your Peacock Bass are different offspring than this guys fish in the video. I had a Northern Pike at one time, the fasted growing fish that I ever had, he shot up from 4” to 16” in just over a year, I had to let him go, my tank was “16” wide, he was tearing up everything at feeding time.
Their anal has 2 holes. If the back Hole is bigger then the front hole its a female. If both holes are same size then its a male. And, He will get a bump on his head about 11inchs when water is warm
Nice aquarium.... unfortunately I went through the same situation with my bass... got them at 1.5 inches and they quickly out grew my pikes and tiger datnoids... they got too aggressive to the point all my fishes started hiding and not feeding, so I eventually had to give them away... really cool fish though
How do you do cleaning the sand that is certainly full of their pup? I like substrate so much, but i never brave enough to put it in my pbass tank because i don't know how to clean it
The python is the truth....vacuuming is a breeze......I can usually drain clean and refill in under 1 hour.....75 gallon.... 12 african cichlids and 1 firemotuh
Kelberi bass stay the smallest so you might be good there but the Oscar might be the problem because of fighting but I’d just watch it. 2 kels should be fine in a 180. I have 2 24kt kelberis and they are awesome
Oscars I’m not estranged to, the current 4 I have probably put me at around 20 I’ve kept in my life time. Bass is the species I’ve never kept before and I’m understanding that they can be more calm than Oscars at times
@@shadowzzz484 im in Viet Nam so i will convert it into US dollars.... wait they are only expensive for me :( they cost around 90.000 VND for a gull grown and it about 3 dollars :/ man im poor
Lol well be careful. I’ve had 3 red tails that were kept with other fish. Just out of the blue the decided that they would eat whatever fit in their mouths lol
Peacock bass are cichlids . The male bass are a little bigger than the females,.both have the same colors. And both sexs are agresive eaters. The males tend to be more agresive twords each other.
GO WATCH THE NEW 18 MONTH GROWTH RATE VIDEO ruclips.net/video/7lrjyziW4Wk/видео.html
Good video! Thinking about getting peacock bass someday, and I know they need a lot of space, but already at 13.5 inches after a year is insane.
Get one! They are so fun

Yes they will need the room. I’ll be upgrading mine very shortly
Keepin it Reel how big is the final tank in the video?
SpaceBass Dude 180
Keepin it Reel thank you for the swift reply
Keepin it Reel holy shit you're close! Just checked the channel out I'm in clarkston
Like the friday skit! Lol
Nice video 🤘🏼 I have 2 large mouth bass
It's interesting..
I have questions..
1) how many times do you change water in a month ? How did you change it ?
2) is it sea water or fresh water?
3) what would happen if powers goes off ? No supply oxygen in aquarium.
Nice story, just adopted 2 PBs today... It helped
All the cool fish grow so fast including gar and redtail
I knew they grew fast, but 5 inches in as many months? Think I’ll wait for a bigger tank before I get a couple 😅
Awesome video👍🏿
Drop Links Below of your PEACOCK BASS!
On my bucket list but i got alot of pikes n Oscars

What happen to that fire eel in with those peacocks?
Amazing 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥I have to do this
Why get a new bass? You’re just going to rehome it 😂😂😂
Nice video!
Nice peacocks man I used to have two green sunfish!!!!!😀😀😀😀😀
Amazing
may i know in 7:02, whats the size of the tank and whats the substrate ? its so cool !!
I love your chanel..:)
Thank you!!
Is a 125 too small for all types of bass? I'm thinking only about three total and nothing else in the tank.
I see the Misses won’t let you use her real plates either for fish feeding 😂
Gore for sure on that!
Really cool man!
Brandon Smalley-Phillips thanks man!
is the marking really bad? mine is like that too
Nothing wrong with markings. Tons of different species of peacock bass
@@KeepinitReel616 I'm still a beginner. How to make my fish look good?
Mad bro loved it got 2 myself mines 4 months old and 8 inches how do I tell the difference with male and female
Honestly I’m not sure on how to tell. I just call all my bass my boys lol
Their anal has 2 holes. If the back
Hole is bigger then the front hole its a female. If both holes are same size then its a male. And, He will get a bump on his head about 11inchs when water is warm
@@KeepinitReel616 lol 😂 yeah might be the same for me atm to the lads
@@josephsedillo8319 awesome bro thank you very much most appreciated

Thank you! I do have more bass that do seem to get along a lot better.
Can I know what type air pump/aerator that u use sir?? Thanks
They grow up so fast 😢
Then they become MONSTERS ! 🎥🐟🐠🐡👍
that they do..
How do you do cleaning the sand that is certainly full of their pup?

Peacock bass need heater in aquarium?
Yes they do
Can I know what is it u r feeding ?? White colour food
can we put AROWANA , alligator gar , datnoid and peacock bass in 1 tank if they all are of small size nearly 4-5inch?
Sure can!
How often do you feed them? Every day? Every 2 days?
I feed my peckock bass blood worms with my step mom it’s so cool
Why did you rehome him? Was he attacking the rest too much?
This monster was getting aggressive.. attacking all my other fish and me when I’d do water changes. One day he just went into beast mode
Keepin it Reel dang. What a shame. I know it’s not cheap but having him in his own tank would be sick. A 240 at least.
where did you get them?
Hey bro nice videos , how many times u feed them in one day ...?? Answer please
Once every other day
Keepin it Reel okay bro 👍
Been doing a bit of research and I’d like to try 2 Kalberi in a 180 with a couple Oscars but not sure if it will be ok long term, what do you think?
Kelberi bass stay the smallest so you might be good there but the Oscar might be the problem because of fighting but I’d just watch it. 2 kels should be fine in a 180. I have 2 24kt kelberis and they are awesome
Oscars I’m not estranged to, the current 4 I have probably put me at around 20 I’ve kept in my life time. Bass is the species I’ve never kept before and I’m understanding that they can be more calm than Oscars at times
@@kennyschindler4203my Oscar’s and bass have never had a problem they are all very docile with eachother
Why did you downsize your tank ?
Had to move to a apartment for a little bit and had to take it down. I will be setting it back up once I move to my new house
hey just askin i have a fish thats extremely similar to the redtail catfish but it tail is black what type is it ?
Probably a Asian red tail catfish but not sure without seeing it

Good💗💗💗❤
Is it ok to keep peacockbass monoculus on 1meter aquarium?
Maybe for a grown out tank but not forever
What kind of shrimp?
Soo what exzacty was u feeding them
Feeding food stick pellets, raw shrimp, raw tilapia mainly
What do they eat?
Raw shrimp and tilapia
do you have a link to that filter that’s spitting out all the bubbles at 4:06 it looks sick
Just a cheap marine land power head attached to sponge filter. Also have fx6 and other power heads. A lot of movement in this tank
who grows faster?peacock bass or silver arowana ?
Bass I have a arowana and a bass bass grow to fast and I have a tementis
How msny lb was ur peacock
Their diet was great until you fed them goldfish. 5:23
When he was getting bigger he looked like he could eat the smaller tems if he wanted to. 😂
How often do you feed them?
Inshore Matt pellets daily. Meats like shrimp and silversides every two days
lol you trained him to smack cranck and topwater!!
Yeah dudes a savage
That’s crazy lol
my local aquatium sell these guys and boi .... they are expensive :(
how much?
@@shadowzzz484 im in Viet Nam so i will convert it into US dollars.... wait they are only expensive for me :(
they cost around 90.000 VND for a gull grown and it about 3 dollars :/ man im poor
I wouldn’t have a red tail with those bass. Lol you’ll start seeing them disappear!
Just growing out together
Lol well be careful. I’ve had 3 red tails that were kept with other fish. Just out of the blue the decided that they would eat whatever fit in their mouths lol
What species was he
Juan Ivaldy ocellaris
Those look like mono peacock. Tems have the spots
There is a mixture in the earlier videos. I did have 2 tems but sold them for another tank...🤦♂️
@@KeepinitReel616 oh okay I see. Sick tanks and fish dude.
Probably a female is why it grew so fast. Females grow much much faster than males. They’re also generally more aggressive and territorial
Peacock bass are cichlids . The male bass are a little bigger than the females,.both have the same colors. And both sexs are agresive eaters. The males tend to be more agresive twords each other.
This fish is highly invasive and will destroy a whole non native ecosystem in only 1 or 2 years.
