Biggest Jardini youve ever seen?

[redtailfool]

I wonder why, but the biggest jardini that ive seen in person never exceeded
17 inches. Whats the biggest jardini youve ever seen and who owns the biggest one here??

Biggest ive seen probably about 15-16", 2 of them, different fish stores though.
They look so FAT

YEARS ago..saw two silver aros in a 100 gallon tank at a lfs. Both have drop eyes, approximately 24-30 inches. They could still manage to turn around in such a small tank.

G'day from downunder!

I have seen quite a few larger Jars getting around, especially lately. Alot in the 18"+ range. Just that time of the year I guess. Also time for small ones to become available to the public.

Personally the largest I have ever seen was ~25". Was eaten by my former RTC, then thought it appropriate to regurgitate it 2 days later. When i measured it (as you can appreciate not the most pleasant or overly accurate of jobs).

that's what happens when I just partially read the post. DOH! I thought aros in general and not particularly just Jardinis. My bad... SOWEE

One displayed at the Shedd Chicago Aquarium is about 3ft I think.

a 3ft jardini? damn thats a good example. ive heard they get that big! i found mine to aggressive to keep with anything, he made it to about 12 inches (dont forget you measure a fish to the tail, not including the tail) but i sold him on for a profit.
