Ahvatsa, I buy them from PetSmart @ about $5 per fish. I've located a source for them in Argentina, but I can't get past the customs requirements.

I've never caught a Peacock bass, always wanted to, but having caught these guys, I don't regret never catching a Peacock now....they couldn't be any more exciting than these fish. I've now caught them, without trying, on crankbaits, spinner baits, various flys, worms, and now a 4 inch live CNBG.

p.s. Ahvatsa, please let us know if you put some in your concrete tank...we've got to keep track of the potential members of RAD's Pacu club. ;\)
