The Peacock Bass Monoculus is a stunning addition to my aquarium. It moves around actively and its colors are vivid. I’ve kept it for three months and it’s thriving in a 150-liter tank with stable water parameters.

Great fish with bright colors. I noticed it’s more active during the day. The tank needs regular maintenance, but the visual impact is worth it.
Amanda McDonald –
It’s a beautiful fish, but I had to adjust the water temperature slightly to match its preference. It seems to do best in a well-filtered tank with moderate lighting.
