Thoughts on this hand? I feel like a bigger raise post-flop would've been better.

Fold preflop.

Bet the flop! You can't check-raise a limped pot unless you're 100% sure that CO is going to bet when it checks through to him.

The rest is fine.

Was A5s a bad call in middle position? folding is better in your opinion?

Position is important.

A5s only enters my range in the CO, and I'd probably have raised the lone limper then.
Unless you have a passive loose table that'll see an unraised 7-way flop, A5s is a fold this early.

I hate limpers. Better fold preflop or raise 3x.

Don't limp here, preflop fold is preferably but raising pre is still better than limping, especially as there is a decent looking player in the BB who likes to 3bet and probably likes to squeeze limpers as well.
Bet the flop for value. If you are going to check raise make it bigger.
As played you are giving 4 players a free card to improve and often someone will improve here, for example QJ and you can kiss your chips goodbye.
after you 6bb raise the pot is 12bb and it only costs he 4bb to call. Not that it really matters on this board but on most boards 4-1 is the correct odds for him to call all oesd and flush draws.
Judging by the way you played this and the general lack of understanding of position and bet sizing I'd strongly advise you to steer clear of the live 1-3 that you posted a hand from earlier.

im raising pf, i suppose calling is ok.. i aint folding.

Not sure what you're doing checking the flop.. when posting hands its good to outline your thought process. It may be a good play, but I don't understand it. I'm betting here 100% readless. The only time chk is good is if a player/s behind bets and reacts to c/r super light, or bluffs way too much.
