mine grew to 3 feet in 3 years...but i put them in a pond with a lot of feeders....i u want them to grow even faster then train them to eat prepared food (market shrimp) or pellets ASAP! then u can feed them even more than i cud! plus it will make life MUCH easier for u in the future!
Tell that to my ck I bought him 6 months ago when he was about 5" and now he's 7". But I don't mind that he's grows slowly. But it would be nice with a big ck.
This is an old thread, lol! I admit that the last couple of CKs I've had hasn't grown as well as the ones in the past. I currently have one that I got 4 months ago and it's only grown 2"
