Pickerel Died!!!!

[voss345]

pickerel need to be in a huge tank if kept with other fish, they are very territorial id say a 200 would be good,
if any you are fisherman as i am ill give you a word of advice you usually dont catch pickerel in the same places you would catch bass if you do keep them together your gona need a monster of a tank

do notice this thread is from 06.....chad has a new pickerel now lol.

and redfin or grass pickerel don't get any bigger then 12" in aquaria, so you could keep one in a 55 if you wanted to.

This is way old my friends! I got myself a new grass pickerel after that one and I still have him he is about 9" now. Still growing like a champ and in my 55 by himself. And if I ever find another redfin his size I would gladly add it with my other one. They really aren't territorial at all they are highly predatory and can't really defend themselves against territorial fish. That is why they either eat or get eaten.
