I was curious about what would be the smallest tank you could use for a mono (ithinkis it) peacock bass? Im have a 90gal and i was wondering if it could host 3 5-6inch peacok bass maybe smaller? I dont know if i will buy them yet but most likely theyd go in the 250 but i was just curious

A 90 gallon would be a perfect grow out tank. You can transfer them to the 250 once they are bigger. I've seen people use 10 gallons, 20 gallon longs,, 40 gallons, 55, 60 up to 75 gallons as growouts.
300 gallons is just taller. A 250 would be fine given that it is atleast 24" in width.
Agreed a 90 would be a cool growout. Id say a 180 6x2x2 would be minimum with a 225 6x2.5x2 or larger being ideal. larger species like tems, pinima, azuls would need larger of course.

thanks guys, like i said im not sure of the species but this is what they look like http://modesto.craigslist.org/for/3218200755.html except idk if id pay $40 for them considering a lfs gets this same kind in usually once a year way cheaper like $20-$30
They look like farmies but considering that they are 5-7 40$ for one is quite a good price id say go ahead and pick some up. As for tank requirements a 90 is a fine growout your just gunna need a great filtration system and aggression might be a lil high but seeing that its going to be a temporary growout it shouldn't be bad.
Come to Fresno and I'll sell you a pellet trained orino for $20But those on the ad look good.
Can i see some pics? i have a pellet trained tem but he eats anything i throw in the pond haha. Next time i get a mouse,lizard, or big gold fish ill get a video of him jumping out of the water trying to get it theyre beasts LOL
