Game Trout
Game Fish In Aquariums?
Does anyone have experience keeping game fish, specifically walleye, in an aquarium? I would like to start a tank with a freshwater game fish, hopefully walleye, but maybe trout, pike, whatever. Is this possible, and what would be some concerns with water temps, pH levels, etc?
They are easy to keep in an aquarium, but you need a HUGE aquarium to do so! I am talking a 200+ gallon aquarium for only a handful of fish. If you are a fisher, you know how large a pike gets, up to six feet. That would render them completely unsuitable for an aquarium life, they would not be able to turn around even in the largest of available aquariums.
Temperature would be easy. The fish you are interested in are cold water fish, and would not need a heater. In the summertime, you might actually need a chiller if you do not use AC. pH depends on the fish. Most American waters though have a slightly alkaline pH, but it can really vary. If your water is slightly hard, then you shouldn't have to mess with it at all. It isn't advisable to mess around with pH, either. Fish can adjust to different levels that may be higher or lower than their 'norm'. A slightly different, but stable pH is preferable to a variable pH because you are using chemicals.
Many people keep peacock bass. It is a game fish of the amazon, but a gorgeous and large fish too.
