About 6 years got him at less than 2 inches, he should be around 22-24 inches but i breed him too much. Breeding is very hard on males if all the eggs are not removed, he wouldnt eat and would stay in the cave fanning and guarding eggs that didnt even hatch for weeks. He was in bad shape for a while. Havent put his female in the tank with him in well over a year and he looks good again grew a couple inches and got really thick. Im going to breed him soon but this time im gong to put him in her tank and remove him after the eggs are fertilized.
