gold saum min tank size

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
For a female, a 40 long or a 55 will work for life.
75 for a male but a 55 will do for a long, long time because of their slow growth rate.
Temperment depends on the individual fish but in any case, most are a pleasure to keep.
 
They can get to be a 12+ inch fish, saying that i'v never seen one bigger than the one I have at the moment, he's 7 - 8'ish inches (at a guess i'm no good with size's)

They are a slow grower, i'v not had mine 4 long but it feels like he's shrinking.:nilly:

Same with most Cic there are "The good, The bad & The ugly" just a case of getting and seeing what he is like, well unless you get one from some-one you no that will tell you what he is really like.

I have 2 right now (will only be one in half of an hour)

i think i got "The bad"
this fish has a nast side, well he's not that bad as long as the other fish stay out of his 95%of the tank
hear he is be 4 getting his ass poundid by a 12 - 14inch walking cat (the GT was the 1 whom started the fights)

The second GT i have i think is "The good & The ugly"

he will let an Oscar half his size chase him all around the tank with out chalanging him, thats the reasion he is going in a min, i have had to split him up from the other fish as they all chase and pick on him
(hes the 1st fish)

55g will do for life. Most often the top out at 10", and thats even after years with pristine water.

Agree. ;) Mine passed on recently, had him for 6 years.
