Hello, today I wanted to pick up something ''odd'' for my datnoid tank. Was orginally looking for a royal clownknife or flagtail prochidulis but my lfs quickly ran out of those of course..:( Anyways I decided to pick up 2 Golden Chinese Alage eaters. The LFS owner said that they eat alage and other fish food. He also told me that they get about 8''. I've gone on various websites and they insist that these guys get about 6''. Does anyone know how big these guys get?

I've seen one at 8 and a half
WOW! I hope mine get that size!
 
well just see how big my two will get
 
You're going to reconsider these fish since these are notoriously aggresive and can suck the slime coat of their tankmates as their food source.
