I would love to setup a LMbass tank. i was thinking a 180 gallon tank do you guys think that would be big enough and what kind of tankmates could you put with it. i Have not found any info on keeping these Guys in a aquaruim.

thanks
 
pickeral, sunfish, channel cat would make good tankmates
 
Head over to http://forum.nanfa.org/ for all your native fish questions. Appropriate largemouth tankmates include other bass, bullheads, and the largest sunfish species, e.g. green, bluegill, and redbreast. But a 180 would be pretty crowded with just the bass. If you want to keep nice predatory natives in your 180, a group of rock or shadow bass and various sunfish would be more diverse and colorful than the LMB.

not in a 180...I'd actually go for bigger than that just for the bass. Channel cats certainly get too big
