Yes....
Depends on water quality, feeding, what food/s you are using and so on. Power feeding, you can probably get it to 8'' in 6 months. I use to feed my baby bass guppies, then rosie reds, then gold fish then pellets, shrimp, chopped clams...etc. As for the feeders, I use to feed them pellets I use to feed my bigger bass, then feed the feeders to the baby bass.
nice kelberi man!
sounds like a lame question, but do pbass jump ???![]()
They can jump just like any other fish, best to be safe rather than sorry and keep your tank well covered.
