Sea Bass anyone ever kept them before

[RedSnooks]

Hello.. Just recently got some Black sea bass. Was wondering if anyone kept them before.
I have some questions about water quality and what you have gotten them to eat.
Mine are about 8 inches.
Thanks guys pics below.

Im gonna guess on this one. But they probly eat small squid, I no they eat sandfleas and bloodworms, When bigger they eat softshell crabs. And pretty shore there full salt water
Ive never saw anyone with them in a tank. I like it

try clam i fish for them all the time thats usually what we use as bait and it works pretty well

squid, minnow, silversides they arent picky in the wild so once they get use to ur tank they should do well

I'm pretty sure it's legal as long as you get them at the appropriate size which is 12 inches the last time I heard....
I'm guessing your running a chiller?
