Alright, I've been playing with polys for awhile, acquiring three sens, one of which seems to be stunted because of a life at a mom and pop lfs in a tank too small and a town that wouldn't know how cool polys are... So I have three Sens that seem to be taking a while to grow...

So, I was wondering which poly has the fastest growth rate?
And even which is the slowest? I'm kinda impatient when it comes to growing... haha
 
Out of all my tiny juvies, the endlies suprassed all the poly by far, he grew from a tiny cigarette 3" to thick carrot thick 8"

Awesome. How long did that take?
 
My ornate has grown from 4 inches to 8.25 inches since july the 5th this year, which i think is pretty good!

wow, that is good. What are you feeding it?
 
Hi blurock,i feed him mealworms,prawn,crickets,cichlid gold etc,ive only seen him eat the worms and the prawn and some catfish pellets but whatever i put in,its gone the next day and hes obviously eating quite a bit as he is quite fat(pics in show me your ornates).

cheers steve
 
One thing I know is that dels are supposed to be fairly slow growers.
As a general rule, lower jaws grow much faster than upper jaws.
