GROWTH RATE

[fishrmann2]

Whattt???? 24"=60 cm....hmmm.....have u seen the PB with this size in a home aquarium???? I think they can reach this size only in a very big tank such in a public aquarium....is'nt it?

I think DM's are over 20" and still going... I have seen cichla in public tanks around 24"! If they have the room, they will grow!

All I can say is I bought my pair at the same size about 1", but the male grow more rapidly, even though they eat same amount of food. Growth is at a scary rate. never had a fish grow that fast before. Have Fun....

transfer them NOW. The barbs won't bother them one bit. Make sure you take the cayfish out of there.

If you're keeping pbass then your home aquaria probably will resemble a public aquarium.

It's not all about tank size to an extent. Water quality is key.

How about the max length that P bass can reach in a tank??? I usually see 12"-16" no more than this size....

Mine are 20" plus. They can, and will, get that large.

They are not 24" yet, but they will get there eventually and besides they act like they are. They recently did some damage to my 17" clown knife too. Dieselmack has some big uns too and they are awesome!!!
Here is pics taken yesterday of my son helping with a water change.
