This species is one of the more peaceful of its genus. The only real danger is it tends to grow realatively large as a Basslet. Once it reaches this larger size, it will become more of a threat to smaller inhabitants. |

The Tobacco Bass (Serranus tabacarius) is sometimes called a Tobacco Fish. It belongs to the family named Grammidae. Typically reaching a max size of about 7.0 inches in length, the Tobacco Bass is generally passive in nature and hardy in stamina. Based on the particular specimen you acquire and its environment, the time when it is most active can fluctuate day or night, and will hang out across the entire tank. According to FishDB current data, captive breeding success is unreported and there are no external signs of sexual differences. Serranus tabacarius should not be housed in a tank less than 55 gallons in size. Tank parameters should be maintained with ph level between 8.1 - 8.3, temperature between 77 - 79 degrees fahrenheit, and a salinity between 1.020 - 1.023. Some of the environmental concerns that you should strive to replicate in your home aquaria to promote succesful acclimation include plenty of hiding places.
