BASS help

[giant19000]

i was thinking of adding 2 bass in my tank but i am not sure which kind would be ok,
my question is if i start with some 3" bass how long can i keep it in a 60gallon till they have to be moved?
reason i want to know if i actually want bass or not,if i do ill set up a tank,and if not ill just grow them out sell them?
wich is has the slowest growth rate??
and wich is considered the shortest out of these beasts???
thanks

Kelberi would be one of the ones that fit your criteria.
They could stay in your 60g for about 6-8months.
But w/ bass they take a while to bloom. Once they hit 12"+ they will begin to awe you and your company.
So you wont really get to see their full beauty in your 60g.

Depends on your other stock.
A couple bass under 20" would be good for a few years if not life in a 220 w/ 30" width.
