She's grown roughly 1 1/2 inches in one month. It's hard to get a good measurement on her, when I put her in she was right at 4 inches. Now she's hovering around 5 - 5 1/2. Her colors have brightened a lot too. She hasn't spooked yet, but I have heard they will do that. She is very very fast. I can see how they would be able to break their snout. She has shed her slime coat a few times, I can't seem to find a rhyme or reason to why she does it. But she is a great fish, pretty active for a catfish. I have loved watching her grow. I normally feed her a piece of frozen silversides with massivore stuffed into it. She loves it and will take it right from my hand. I've tried shrimp, but she doesn't seem to like that. I want to try a piece of fresh fish fillet but I'm leery about it.
I have a 120g, andI had originally planned to get a group of 3 with plans of upgrading later, but I don't want to take a chance of not being able to upgrade because who knows what my situation will be in a year. I've read different things regarding their max growth but since she's grown an inch in a month I'm glad I stuck with one for now. I'm excited to see how big she's going to get.
