A certain site I can't mention. Suggests a minimum of a 500 gallon tank. It also states that they get upto 7' long, so even a 500 won't last long IMO. It states a 150 is good enough for them as juveniles.

I saw one for sale, it was $79.99 and was about 4 or five inches. Small baby. Really thin, but the teeth were there already. Cool, but my groupers would have him for lunch....

Bad idea man.. Unles you have a tank like Novice, and I think that may even be too small.
 
I have caught ones that are 4 inches in the keys, but I didnt keep it. I wouldnt want one because Ive seen these suckers at like 8 ft!
