picked up 4 of these guys yesterday they are only 3"
i had to have a little change around so they can have a 75g to themselves to grow out in
heres a short vid sorry its a bit dark i have only 1 bulb on while they settle in

Nice, I do like P.Bass, looks like youve got a good setup for them aswell get some shots/vid when the lights are all on

Looking nice and healthy, cane. Can't wait to see them when they bulk up a bit more.

What size are you growing them too?

they will stay in the 75g until they are big enough not to get eaten in the bigger tanks
a month or two until they are 5-6"

Ahh cool may seem a stupid question but do they feed off live or dead food?

oooh they are going to be stunning monsters.
have you seen some of the ones people keep over on MFK

they look anorexic tiny bodies, big heads lol

I'm sure you'll get them some nice grub though. Are they hard to bring up? I seem to recall it's a challenge to get them eating enough or am i confusing with something else?

best wishes with it
