Um NO.. This is just not true.. I think you have your algae eaters crossed. Mine is 8" and I have read 11" max... But i have seen only one in life bigger than mine.. and it was 9" ... The other 3 I own I have had for almost a year and they were in a 55 for most of that.. They gained 1 inch.... And the one I have at 8" is in a 150.. These are common in african tanks due to their ability to hold their own with Cichlids... Mine just dominated my Fenestratus a couple of weeks ago I couldn't stop laughin ...
