I have 6 Red Hooks all about 4.5-5". I wanted to know how big they need to be before trying to add them in with my Mono and Temensis. The Mono and Temensis are each about 16" in length. Thanks
When to add Red Hooks to the tank?

Big enough to not become fish bait 
. I think they are still to small but maybe others can chime in

Temensis can do stretch its mouth big .. well the size of red hooks are too small and I am sure they will be a snack .. let them add up some more size and make sure u feed your pbass to their full and add the red hooks
Yeah still to small.. not sure if they’ll ever catch up considering how fast Tem’s grow
I have a 2" Tiger SD with my 14" Xingu and 16" Wolf fish never had a problem
There always is the rare occasion that it works out. I tried adding some small silver dollars (6 total) with my arrow and kelberi years back and they disappeared very quickly I wasn’t as fortunate as you
.
Sometimes you luck out but there’s to many unknowns. Not sure if he’s willing to chance it and lose out on the fish and money.
They look at the size where he could just get them in his mouth if he wanted to.
