Hi all,
I had 5 young male Gymnogeophagus balzanii for a couple of months in a 75g. 2 weeks ago I sold off the other males to keep the dominant male. Remaining male started acting a bit twitchy but I chalked it up so being skittish without its tank mates. Now it’s developed 3 raised slightly...
So over the years their has been a few threads about how large Festae can get. With discussions about one reaching 20” or more.
I believe it’s entirely possible.
By posting this I’m in no way claiming this fish was the biggest or anything.
I encourage anyone with very large Festae to post them...
