Heres a clip from a HUGE 12,000 gallon museum Aquarium, with massive Oscars Firemouths and a giant Male Festae....

Key points... 2:12mins Large pair of Firemouths (probs 7inches)
3:48mins Huge male Festae (probs 18 - 20inches)

I used to have a pair on their own that grew pretty big in a 100 gallon tank.... The male was 12inches with the female 8inches. I'm sure if kept on their own Your Festae will get pretty massive but it might take 8 or 9 years ;)

2'??? I never heard that. Would be news to me. I've only been able to research males upto 16" and females 12". Although I'm sure that in the wild they could exceed those sizes by couple inches but I highly doubt ones ever made it to 2'. I would love to see that one:)

Also s member on here by the name roadrunner has a thread in the cichlid media lounge with tons of festae pics:)

Ok I might be wrong. I seen on a few info sits that states 2' as thier Max size. Possibly could be a size unable to reach in captivity or average monster Aquarium. I would pay to see a two foot festae. Could also be that they grow so slow that many don't live long enough to reach 2'
