ZZ red dragon female.

I just got her 2 days ago. She's about 6 inches long. Is it a good one? How much bigger will she get? She's alone in a 50 gallon.

Its a low grade female. With females, she could possibly get to 12 inches or larger, but the usual length is 10 inches tops. That 50 gallon should be fine, but whats the footprint of the tank?

They make 50 gallon bowfronts nowadays? Hmm. It wouldn't be ideal, but it would work.
