How to KEEP A PET BASS! (Russell)

Thinking of sending this to my science teacher because he has 2 bass 3 Perch 1 sucker 1bullhead and 50+ minnows
In only a 50 gallon tank, I know I know it’s bad 😢

I have a 50 gallon tank. And I wanna out a small bass and a bluegill big enough so the bass won't eat it. Dob you think they could coexist tho

u think 40 gallon would work

Honestly that tank is too small for Russell. He’s pushing a foot and will get bigger. I’d say 125 is the minimum dude. You’ve been fish keeping for barely two years and clearly don’t have the experience.. your reasoning for tank size that are bigger is that you heard you can keep fish in that size 😂😂😂😂 what a joke 😂😂😂😂

Really he is too small for the tank well since you don’t have much stuff in it He has plenty of room. But it is recommended. To have 10 gallons. Per 1 inch for keeping a bass so technically that tank is only made for a 7 inch bass

What’s ur opinion on sand bottoms? I think they look good but seem kinda difficult

Can you keep a bass in california

Can you feed bass shrimp and cricket

The feeding cycle and frequency is what I'm interested. I've had several bluegill and bass as fish at different times, and have had tanks with multiple species of fish most of my 45 years of life. I had a spotted bass that I named Spots and posted videos of him on Facebook over a year or so for my friends. For feeding, I would go to the river and catch native minnows and guppies to feed him, or if I was short on time, I'd buy comet goldfish (feeder fish) or red rosie minnows from the pet store to feed him. However, I may have been feeding him more than he needed each week, which he never complained about, but I'd just get the minnows and leave them in their bag to acclimate to the water temperature of the tank (and build some anticipation of hunt for him) then let them go. A couple/few days after he'd finished off all the fish, I'd get him more, because I didn't know how often he needed to eat. This the primary info I'm looking for: how often do bass need to eat based on their size and weight? I caught Spots when he was about 6 inches long and let him go when he reached 11 or 12 inches.

Honestly I was paying more attention to Russel than the instructions 😂

9:55 I got my pet bass when he was a little fry he is like 5 inches now but I don’t really know if I am feeding him enough

Hey I have a 125 gallon outside tank. I put all the correct stuff in the water, proper filtration system and the bass keep dying?? What am I doing wrong here? I’ve lost like 5 bass already and I’ve let them all acclimate before putting them into the tank.

Is this same for all species of bass? Including smallmouth?

What kind of water do you use

Anyone setting a tank up put an air stone in the tank you need to put oxygen in the water by agitating the surface with the little bubbles with an air pump they also sell at pet stores
