They don't grow to the size of there environment. In a small tank body growth is stunted while the insides keep trying to grow to the normal size leading to health issues
"grow to the size of their environment" by that they mean their size is limited if their environment is small. Not that the fish will grow 4 ft living in a 4ft wide tank. This is common sense, you have very poor inferring skills if you truly believe he ment the size of the by tank 🤡💀
@@Daveeeeeeyhowyoudoing they just said the fish would be stunted and develop health issues. Not that a fish would grow to the exact size of their environment? im very confused ive been reading this comment for like ten minutes trying to make sense of it.
@DaveyHowYouDoing ppl believe fish can grow to the size of their environment and just stay a small size healthy. It's common knowledge for many many people. He definitely believes a bass will stay small and live as normal in a small tank. Which is bullshit as the fish will be stunted and die prematurely as they don't at all stop growing and do not grow to the size of their environment or tank in captivity or the wild.
I thought some people might like a further explanation. So a couple years back during the spring melt up in Wisconsin, I ended up netting a whole bunch of small fish in a stagnant pool that had previously had flowing water running through it and in amongst the things that I ended up netting was a baby largemouth bass I ended up growing her to be somewhere in the ballpark of 11-12 in when I released her
I'll stick to Beta and mosquito pet fish, Lazy , corrupt, incompetent government, won't use real solutions to the mosquito epidemic. I have to breed and release the mosquito fish in ponds, canals, and swamps in my area.
@@tigercow Completely 100% wrong.. . How come this fish didn't die when it was transferred from the wild into a tank???? ... For the same reason it wouldn't die going back...Fish are slowly acclimated to new water over a few hours, addressing ph and temperature change to name a few.....No difference than bringing a fish home from a pet store....This fish in captivity for the number of likes and views on social media is sad...Tell me I'm wrong.
@@robertb4432 That's not even close to what I said. I'll say it again. It's ILLEGAL to return a fish brought home back into the wild. This is because the fish may bring AQUARIA ILLNESSES to the WILD, as in, illnesses commonly found within the fishkeeping hobby can be introduced to all fish in a body of water because someone decides to release their once-wild captive pet. Obviously a bass can handle a little bit of parameter changes, but I don't care about that. It's not about the bass at that point, it's about the entire body of water that it would be reintroduced into. The best and safest thing that can be done for a bass and the ecosystem as a whole in this situation is a properly sized aquarium or pond, disconnected from any natural bodies of water. It's illegal to release like this for a very good reason.
@@tigercow My edit was not saved...As a fresh water fish hobbyist for over 40 years with gold fish ponds and large indoor aquariums, there is nothing and I mean ZERO threat to a natural ecosystem that this bass could ever bring back and spread a disease... Aquaria diseases are the result of poor water conditions.. There is no alien bacteria or organism this bass would ever introduce back into a pond or lake..
Bass are so cool... They are greedy and aggressive AF!! Normally these are not great qualities, but I gotta respect these guys!! Truly a sportsman's game
Many states have laws requiring a permit to keep game fish. Or you may keep ones bought from a commercial fish farm ie a stock pond supplier. I did that with some crappie in a 55 gal tank they were really cool to watch. Much more interesting than regular pet store fish!!🐟🐟🐟
Hell yeah i bet taking care of a bass in a tank takes a lot of know-how. Very cool man. 👍 I wanna see him hit about 10lbs and know how old he was when he made weight
Yeah really why does this comment have so many likes ppl think just cause their “free” they’re automatically happier that fish is living his best life ever safe happy being fed like jus like when ppl have pet lions and other ones the ppl that mess up ruin it for everyone else in the wild they are starving all the time and like homeless how’s that better lol
@@alexcarson9638 because a fish like that should have an absolutely humongous aquarium one day and probably will not. Also, lifespan in captivity is usually half of that in the wild. You don't have a clue what you're talking about
My family had a 300 gallon tank in our basement lounge. It had blue lights in the back and it sat inside the wall behind a bar. We had salt water animals including coral and anemias with an octopus that turned blue a lot because it adapted to the blue light. I used to play with the octopus when I was a kid. I brought my friends down into the basement and mom made us homemade pizza and chips and chips. We also had a large TV where we watched movies. We lived there for six years. I was able to keep a fish I caught while deep sea fishing inside the tank. It got very large and it lived for 20 years. Some fish can live up to 50 years it depends on the breed. Mine was a tropical fish. Most people don't know that tropical fish are very large fish. The exotic fish you get from breeders are bred to be smaller. Food is how you grow the fish not the environment. You have to grow the environment around the size of your fish.
I had a pet bass, they are so smart One night my dad unplugged fishtank cord and plugged in microwave for popcorn and forgot to plug my fish tank back in. They heard tapping all night as it picked up pebbles and spit it out at the glass We found him too late, so heartbreaking
@@foyfamily6960 Don't forget the tepping. 8 to 10 hrs w/o bubbler? Filter? Dish should have been able to survive that, must've been a waaay small tank or very dirty water.
I had some also in a tank. I could sit in my recliner with a fishing rod and swing a shiny lure in front of the tank and they would chase it. They are ferocious predators.
Gus had a lot of reserves. In nature, bass grow quickly their first year. after that 1st year, they grow less an inch per year. it can slightly more or less depending on food availability and competition.
Quick question when you first got Gus into the tank what materials did you put in your filter ? Cuz my largemouth died recently all because during the water change I replaced the media baskets with a carbon mesh bag instead of just using sponges for the whole canister
“This is Gus now”
*on a dinner platter*
Deadass wanted to comment that but u got to it first lmfao
😂😂😂
This is the part I was waiting for 😂😂😂

You don't eat Large Mouth bass. The meat is too tough. Bit small mouth had a natural sweet taste and eat to fillet
and now Guss has been introduced to his new home. the frying pan.
Rip guss 😂😂😂😭😭😭
Why would anyone eat their pet??
@@pouletbidule9831 FOR MEAT
save bass eat crappie and perch
Get in My belly!
That goldfish said "nope. Fuck this I'm out."
😂😂😂😂
Lmao 🤣 💯 I was coming to say the same
Fuck this shit I'm out goldfish
That bass was playing super smash bros
Goldfish always say that because they ALWAYS die like super fast,that's why we stopped buying dang fish for pets!
... and Guss what!
Next semester he'll be going to college!
Way to go Guss!
Well he graduated college went to uni now he's got blue hair, a nose ring, 42 genders and a degree in social science
He'll be doing culinary classes
Gus was angry as hell when that fish got away😂
Lmao
Definitely his equivalent of “FUCK!!!”
... bet he was still hungry and it got away ...

@@Cavachonc777completely unrelated to fish so stfu 🤬
I had a largemouth bass in a 85 gallon many years ago. He was a hoot. Would snatch worms and minnows from your fingers. Amazing having it.
Wow. Huh huh huh. Lol
They don't grow to the size of there environment. In a small tank body growth is stunted while the insides keep trying to grow to the normal size leading to health issues
Exactly, same case with goldfish
It'd be more accurate to say that their size is limited by their environment, meaning they need room to grow
"grow to the size of their environment" by that they mean their size is limited if their environment is small.
Not that the fish will grow 4 ft living in a 4ft wide tank.
This is common sense, you have very poor inferring skills if you truly believe he ment the size of the by tank 🤡💀

It's all around stunted due to hormone release.

That goldfish deserves it’s own tank for that
💯! I hope he got the other tank he definitely earned it
“What is this? Goldfish? I had this last night”
*violently throws it out of the tank*
Bring me shrimp peasant😂
I love to see good pet owners that love an care for their pets 😊
Reminds me of back when I had my pet bass... I loved her dearly but at the same time taking care of a 75 gallon aquarium was a pain

Yeah they grow really fast it's hard to keep them for very long unless you just have a giant 3 or 4 hundred gallon tank.
...so you ate her.
Let Gus go.. He deserves to live his best life back where he belongs.
he will die because of the ph change
If you take it home, you legally cannot return it because of the risks of aquaria illnesses being transferred into the ecosystems.

Gus needs a yard pond now. That tank looks tiny for him 🐠
frfr
I know😥
He's bouta be like the homeschool kid now
Gus kept it 55th street and evicted cuz from his hood XD
😂
😂😂😂
On hood ♿️
Awesome vid! Background music sounds like Replicant Phish!
I wonder how Guss is going to taste after eating shrimp and crab... I bet he's probably the best tasting bass ever!
Yes I womder haha damn this comment made me hungry
I don't know... he might taste fishy. lol
well he won't taste like that goldfish.... or will he?
Love your background music!!!
Gus is gonna look good on the wall one day
Na he will look way better on the grill!
Neither
That gold fish will take his chances with oxygen before he’ll mess with Gus.
Goldfish goldfish actually breathe oxygen it just needs to be in water. That's why fish tanks need the bubblers to add oxygen to the water.
@@musicalatv I know. In fact, everyone past first grade knows that. I was making a joke.
You need a cover on it my bass jumped out of the aquarium when I was at work !
Yes! I lost my bluegill the same way...and I had him for 3 years.

Right on!!! Keep the videos coming. You should do crawfish next.
Gus lookin all swole
That looks like an awesome fish to have as a pet! So responsive!
Imagine if you introduced him to an endless supply of water
You mean like a lake?
@@lil_huntito that isnt endless but prolly
Gus deserves more
This fish actually looks happy
Its absolutely not.
Bass r really good pets that are smart and they eat almost anything that enters their tank
Awesome video bro!
You should narrate planet earth, bro. You know how to use your voice. "in JUST A FEW MONTHS..."
Cool af dude. Looking forward to the next environment upgrade 💯
Call me when he's 5lbs, I'll bring the fish crisp.
Youl bring what
Gus is a freakin cannibal. Sick bastard lol
We had an above ground pool when I was younger with my buddy’s that we kept bass in, they are everything and got huge!!
Gus seems like a pretty cool guy
Bro says bass gro to the size of their environment 😂😂😂 du...RIP fish
That's so awesome.
Love it
Can you please do more you did a good job
My stepdad did this when I was young feed it goldfish the bass litterally it’s whole underneath was bright orange like a gold fish
That little orange fish said, “Bye Ho!” to that bass and jump the muck out!😂👍😂👍😂
And now gus had been placed to rest over a bed of rice.
Bass do not grow to the size of their enclosure… if they did 10+ pounders would be all over the place.
Thats because nature. There are those ginormous fish but they are rare because it's not very often a bass gets a long lifespan in the wild

Gus, gonna be good
They grow fast man. And in the wild when they hit about 3 to 4 pounds they start growing alot again cuz they can eat so many more things at that size.
I never thought of that, great point 👉
Nice, June 12th is now a birthday I share with Gus
Fish low key said "F*ck this sh!t, I'm out!" 😂
The aquariums at some of those wonderful outdoorsman stores are very impressive and a great treat for the kids.

Imagine if fish kept you as pets and they pull you underwater to show their friends
Let gus go, he's a utube star, would you please film his release don't let nothing happen to that sweet fish ❤
You made me wanna get a pet pass so now I have a 150 gallon tank for a bass
Dang Gus, that boy growing to some nice fish and chips I tell you what .
I had a smallmouth bass that was similar in size when I got him. One of the coolest “pets” to have!
OMG not the fish jumping out the tank to get away from Gus!!!! That’s quite a big goldfish wrangling!!!
Finding Gus coming to theatres near you
Gotcha self a Fish Hatchery there going.... Hell why not? You're already set to go, just keep it going 👍🏻
Awesome dude.
Man got his fish on a insane bulk 🤣🤣
That fish flew out like finding Nemo
What a beautiful blond fish!
That gold fish thought we didn’t see him escape death by a millisecond 😂
Gus bout to be fried 😂😂😂😂
Great content
"My name is Gustavo, but you can call me Gus."
That goldfish really fought for it's fucking life. At that point I'm throwing it back and some other poor bastard is fish food tonight. 😂

That gold fish got tf outa dodge 😂
Now he's ready for butter and lemon..😂
Cool
What state are you in because it is illegal in most states, including my state of Texas to keep a bass
