What is the biggest datnoid you have seen in an aquarium? Mine looked 24 plus inches long and possibly 15 to 20 pounds at the Steinhart Aquarium about 10 years ago.:D:eek::headbang2
 
I currently have got a datnoid the size of an adult oscar.
 
had one at 16" tape measured.. never seen one bigger but I'm in sweden which means there are hardly no dats what so ever..
 
A fellow mfk member in uk got a 20 inch widebar. Seen it in person myself. Stunning tiger especially at that size.
 
How long does it take an st or it to reach 18 inches? My st is currently 12-14 inches and my it is around 10 inches.
 
My Tiger that is the size of an adult oscar took about 5 to 6 years to reach that size. Even though it was fed well daily.

My Oscars reached that size in about 5 to 6 months.
 
14", after 12" they grow about 1" a year, oscars i mean..
 
I have never measured the adult oscars however 14-16 inches seems accurate.
