I currently have 2 largemouth bass about 2.5 inches, would a pickerel be alright to add? can they tolerate the same water conditions?
lmb + pickerel?

They can certainly tolerate the same water conditions; I often see them hanging out in the same backwaters. But I wouldn't do it. Those are two voracious big-mouthed fish, and sooner or later one will end up in the other's mouth.
I lost my first grass pickerel, a 4" juvenile, when it tried to eat a 2.5" green sunfish that I was keeping with it. He got it halfway down and then died.
