2014 grow outs project ornate and weeksii

Oh I have a lot juvies to grow out. This thread is perfect to document it.

CB Endli 7" right now. Goal is 15" by next Christmas.
5" ornate right now. Goal is 15" by year end.
CB Teugelsi at 10". Goal is 18" by year end
7" WC weeksii at the moment. I don't know how fast weeksii will grow so I will conservatively set my goal at 14".

12" cb Endlicheri, had it since April of last year at 3".

Goal is 20" by year end. He managed to squeeze in an extra inch in the time I've had him so I'm hoping his growth will stay accelerated.

I like that we are all being aggressive with our goals, go big or go home. The mid year update will be exciting.

I agree!! I'm not even gonna power feed lol just my regular routine, and see how it goes. I'm pretty confident in my estimate though.

Hmmm I'll have to find a ruler and put up my projections as I have a few grow-outs I wouldn't mind documenting

I have:
x1 Ornate (I assume CB) 8" currently and my goal is 12"
x1 Mokelembembe 5" currently and my goal is 7"
x1 Weeksii 5.5" currently and my goal is 8"
x1 Endlicheri Black Volta 6" currently and my goal is 10"

What I am doing to try and get these growth rates is increasing feeding, filtration, and water changes. I am going to start feeding 4-5 times a week with earthworms, massivore, shrimp pellets, tilapia fillets, and catfish fillets. I am planning on upgrading from my 75g (had a 200g but things didn't work out so I'm gonna get something around a 265) and adding 2 eheim 2260's and any other filtration I can get my hands on. And Trying to do water changes 3-4 times a week. However If the cost of conditioner gets to pricey I'll end up dropping to 2-3 times a week.

My 6.5 inch senegal bichir. I want him at a foot my next new year. He hit 6.5 inches in a year, he should be able to put another 5.5 inch.
