I love the look of the peacock bass, but I can't keep one in my tank for more than 3 days before they die. I don't know what is wrong. So far I have about 20 other cichlids in my 125 gallon that are all around 2in. Each time I have bought a bass, I have bought other fish to put in there. 2 months ago I had one for about 2 weeks and it died. Then last week I bought a Blood parrot and a peacock bass, the Blood parrot lived and the peacock bass died, then I went and bought another peacock bass and a red devil and a catfish, the catfish and red devil lived, the peacock bass was dead.
What do these peacock bass need that they keep dying in my tank. All my nitrates and nitrites and kh and ph all tested fine. I feed my fish a combination of guppys, plankton, flakes, and chiclid pellets.
PLEASE HELP!!!
