poor fish...I'm surprised he hasn't had an problems with that kind of bio load. I would think the stress alone would lead to some major issues for them.
benzjamin13;2833461; said:There are many factors that account for stunting. Tank size, water quality, and feeding. You're saying that tank size doesn't matter, but the other factors do...this is incorrect. Like midnightCK said, tank size also plays a roll in stunting. Fish mobility is needed for muscle development in order to help fish grow. Fish also release hormones that control their own growth rate. The better the better the filtration and the more water changes are done, the more likely that the fish will grow because the hormones in the water is being taken away, but that can slow down the growth rate. That's why a lot of people believe the "Size of Their Tank" theory.

Now do you really think that a smaller or larger room size would actually affect your growth or size you are today>? just think about it.
