a friend of mine is stocking his lake right now and has a couple 8 inch northern pike and he offered to let me have one, i was wondering if i could keep it in a tank for a couple months before putting him in my pond so he gets big enough that he cant swim downstream. i was thinking maybe a foot long or 14" and ill release him.
Will he survive in the tank?
If so how big of a tank does he need and what should i have plantwise?
and another local pond has a bunch of small bluegill in it, can i feed them to the pike?
the pike is going into the pond no matter what but i thought it would be cool to have it in a tank for a little bit. any input would be helpfull
