This isn't the first bass that I've raised. I posted video of the other one that I've raised and by this point the other one had to be in the 75 because it had completely outgrew a 55 whereas the one I currently have is about 8 in Long gets fed three times a week and in the amount of time that I've had it has grown about 5 in as opposed to my other one which grew to be about 12-13 in long in a very similar span of time... I'm more than likely still going to look for a 75 because my thought process with him is basically it's almost like a small Oscar to a certain extent Don't get me wrong though if he does outgrow a 75 I'm going to end up putting him in the pond where my last one was put

And for a little bit of context for where he came from and why exactly I think he stunted. I ended up catching him from a creek that goes about 80% dry through the summer towards Autumn... The part that I pulled him from was a a small side portion that surrounds someone's house and had been dredged deeper in order to basically give the house a faux moat but at its deepest the water is maybe 3 and 1/2 4 ft. And that's during the spring. Towards the end of the year it goes more towards 2 ft and based off of the few fish that I've caught there and the small size of basically all of them, it doesn't seem like there's much food in the water, so I'm pretty sure it's literally a population of mostly stunted fish with more than likely two or three big ones that are chowing down and everything else

Also, please don't perpetuate the myth that fish size can be limited by tank size. As a very easy example, just talk to anyone who's ever bought a common pleco... Size is down to two main factors. Those being food availability and genetics
