Nothing huge, I couldnt get the other tinfoil, or the plec, and I didnt bother with the 2 other balas as they are small. I have 14 fish total

All the tins are about the same size, the 2 other balas are 1-1.5" smaller than the biggest and the pleco is toping over 10"



Orange oranda, got him a few months ago, already double in his size
White Oranda I beleive I got him a month before the orange, doubled aswell
The calico is actually 2-3 years old. Seems to be a slow grower and grows in spurts. His/her last spurt was probably 4-5 months ago

Iv had these guys since beginning of november @ 2.5" and 1.5" they grow well

The white gold fish is somewhere around 5-6 years old. He spent 2-3 years in a 2 gallon hex. My sister won him at a carnival and lived his life in there. I took him in about 2 years ago and looks to be growing just very slowly so there is hope left. Comet is 2-3 years old really taken off in growth the past 6 months
Thats my biggest bala, I got them at the end of april 07. He has double his size, the others havent really grown to much.

Im hoping in 6 months they will grow some more, I know the cats will for sure
 
those arnt on carpet are they? why couldnt you at least pu them in a small bucket and take an arial measurement?

or at least idk, ive used wet styrofoad before as a backing, just would hate to see a bunch of fish like that succumb to infection from handling
 
No they are on a wet towel and were constantly sprayed with the water bottle while I was fumbling with them, seemed to calm them down. As for the bucket I cant seem to locate the 5 gallon bucket, it may be outside.
 
Its cool to see such a small pangasius and bala shark that, without the tape measure, I would figured were at least double their size.
 
as in they wont get past 12"? Im hoping they will all go past the 12" mark. 12" is a little small!

Im just hoping the pangasius can peg atleast 24"
