holla Einjahr..peacock bass need good water oxygenation since they like to swim at middle n bottom of the tank.
u also need good filtration to cycle the water and keep them clean from all type of waste including bad bacteria.
hope this will help.good luck. 

my fish also got same prob before..few hours after added some salt..the 'mucus' start to peel-off from their body..
Most welcome! our ponds and lakes are different thing..their ecosystem totally different from our thank..haha
the challenge is to build our tank as perfect as their ecosystem..
i also thought that peacock are hardy as tilapia..at first i put 2 peacock in a basic top-filter tank..few hours later they are taking breath at the surface just like tilapia..tomoro morning 1 of them RIP! immediately instal the air pump and he survive and healthy till now..

Dammit u guys are so lucky u have space at ur house. =P

Owh yeah ar.. Too much sun would be a problem. Make the pond beside a big shady tree perhaps? 

Yea exactly, and imagine if u can get arapaimas as well. That would be my dream dude. Haha

But arapaimas would be cool what! Just fence the lake la to avoid any kids being feeders. 

Yea, found quite a few. Theres one at Bdr Utama Centrepoint, around 11 inches. And one shop at Seri Kembangan(Equine Park) have an aquarium full of em!

Btw temensis are peacock bass right? Was referring to that. Hehe

sure its piranha? gila berani jual open place

Died?how come?the fish that you put in the steel tank?

Sungai buloh taman sri putra...u can ask yeobster the full address..
I have no experience in keeping p.bass.maybe you can ask my friends a.k.a the shop owner

its the submersible pump that pump the wter into sump tank maybe..thats why the water is so clear. basic for filteration is to have the pump capacity double or triple the amount of the water in the tank at least. check at ur pump..how many liter/hour it will pump the water. then only go to your filter mechanism. u might need mechanical filter(foam) and bio-filter (bio ring etc) and carbon if needed for chemical filteration. DIY your top filter to hv 3 slot to put all those thing or get ready stock plastic top filter(that have 3 or 4 slots and works like sump tank) at ur nearest LFS. it shud work. btw the tank that u used is it brand new or used one? if its a brand new, ur fish died maybe because of 'new tank syndrom'. there are a lot of bad bacteria in glass silicon.to avoid them..just rinse with clorox n clean water. leave it dry under the sun for few days n can start to cycle the water..test with feeder fish..if they survive then ur tank is now ready for ur monster. 

cool! your steel tank is it meant for fish keeping or what? i wonder how it looks...sounds quite big with 300-400g..haha can you post the picture if u dont mind? thanx..  nway wil pm u adress to bro khairulanuar's place..will visit him maybe on tuesday..feel free to come...
