pbass bahia gold 24k

[m_class2g]

had these guys for a little over a month. they are progressing nicely!

this male is finally looking like a true 24k bahia.


this is the smaller one that the big bahia beats on. suppose to be a female.

That is a truly stunning pbass. Too bad there wasn't much supply of high end pbass locally a few years back. That being said, big fish freaks my wife out a bit so she would have probably said no way. LOL.

Not a huge fan of pbass but those guys look great! how big are they now? They look around 11 inch?

My wife says pbass look like food fish in a fish market tank so why would I want to keep it. I did hear that they are pretty good eating fish....

thanks guys! yea they look like food fish for sure lol.

my gf was travelling in south america 2 years back and she showed me a bunch of pics at the fish market. lots of pbass being eaten, TSN catfish, pacus etc etc. pbass being one of the more common food fish.

the male is about a foot long and the female 10 inches. i purchased these guys as a breeding pair. i wonder if they will pair up and spawn in my tank.
