I was able to grow 5" a kelberi to 10" in a little over a year. I have not see growth spurt like before. Is this normal at this size for growth to slow down? what's the average growth rate of a kelberi once it reaches 10" mark?

Some of them got stunt during witching off live process, thus slow down on growth rate. Usually, I notice they grows fast between 5"-12", and slow down when they reach 12".

Ya, most are about 11-12" now. I hope they get to 17-18" by the end of the year. Maybe that is just me having wishful thoughts.:D
