doubt you'd need 2k gallons for 8 fish that get over 24"

there 4" right now, in a 70x12x16. Hopefully I'll be moving them into the 4x2x2 in 2-3 months depending on their growth. it'll be awhile till I move them out of that.

cant wait till they hit this size range http://www.monsterfishkeepers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=224978

nice to see your still keeping fish boggy, hows everything? I've noticed some older mfkers left the hobby

those are microlepis...

growth is crazy fast, reminds me of alligator gars, no joke.
had one at 1-2" grew to 8-9" in a little over a month, had to give it away,
so awsome though, if i ever get a bigger tank i will do a big tank just for them
