drewcastle Posted May 1, 2014 Report Share Posted May 1, 2014 Hey all, I have a 4x2 and I'm looking to get some peacock bass fry. I know the 4x2 isn't big enough for the peacock bass but I'm just curious as to how long the4x2 would last before I start looking to upgrade. Any helps appriciated!

Yodapwnsasmurf Posted May 1, 2014 Report Share Posted May 1, 2014 I think a lot of people spawn pairs in 4x2s but I could be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holdenmad Posted May 1, 2014 Report Share Posted May 1, 2014 About 12 months. Depends how much you feed them. If you want some let me know still have a few left. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke1983 Posted May 1, 2014 Report Share Posted May 1, 2014 I have a pair in a 8 footer they are happiest in there but they started in a 6 footer than I moved them into a 5 footer and they spawned in there but I would recommend a minimum size of 6 foot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
