Are largemouth bass worth keeping in an aquarium or not? Let know if you have one and your opinion thanks
 
What size tank do you suggest if i start with a juvie and grow it up slowly and how fast do they grow?
 
They don't grow slowly - they grow Fast!
And they'll eat like you wouldn't believe.

You could start with a 55 but it will outgrow that pretty quickly. Personally, I'd start with at least a 75 and plan on upgrading to a 125 in a year.
 
I heard they will eat you out of house and home. So be prepared to stock up on food.
 
Get a breeding pair of convicts going, and some platies, and some mollies, and whatever else you can breed really easily.
They eat tons man, get some good filtration and a big ole' tank. Think oscar that actually moves a lot.
 
DO IT!!! get the BASS that would be awesome!! and for feeding it, just think of when you go fishing... throw in some shiners, worms, pellets, w/e... Get a big shiner tank goin to feed this beast!
