Fish Breeders Posted May 20, 2008 Report Share Posted May 20, 2008 yeh you can keep bullrout in fresh water as long as that is where they come from but most are fresh water. as for keeping with natives make sure they are bigger than him otherwise they will become lunch bullrouts can eat just about anything there size Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
