Firemouth size

[JTRG05]

Mine's at least a year and a half (probably) I don't know how long the LFS had him, but he's about 3 in. right now. They're relatively cheap when they're little, but if you want one above 2 or 3 inches they get costly and rare in LFS (at least here), if no one on here has one you probably won't find one unless you are very patient.

Good Luck mate!

assuming you mean total length - - i.e., from nose to tail-fin - - I really don't think you'll see much bigger than 6" for a male, allowing for the occasional exception; on the other hand, I doubt you'd see smaller than 4" even for a female

but 3"? geez, that'd be a dwarf cichlid at that size . . . FMs aren't dwarves . . .
