Got him at 5" last June or July. He's in a 285gal that gets a 40-50% weekly water change. He's fed aro sticks, gut-loaded live crickets, thawed market raw shrimp, and the occassional bait shiner. I put trace elements and aro-vits in the tank weekly. Once he hits 1.5ft, he'll be transferred to the 650gal to max out his growth potential.
