I am helping my 22 year old daughter with a new fish. She had an Angel and 6 corydora in a 40 gallon w/Cascade 1000 filter (sand substrate, fake plants, some nice hiding spots) for 6 years. The Angel died about 6 weeks ago and she decided she wanted a new fish. She decided on an Electric Blue Acara. I kept a Blue Acara for 8 years and have some experience with them.
But, the Electric Blue Acara that we purchased is only about 1.5" long and I don't have much experience with such a small fish.
We are feeding some Omega One flake and NLS 0.5mm pellets. Its been about a month and the little bugger hasn't grown much. He (she?) is eating pretty good....feeding 3 times a day and doing 75% water changes every 3 days.
Anyone have any idea how fast an EB Acara grows?
Thanks for reading.
