You got it. The oldest two I've had for almost 10 years, and they look like they swallowed a tennis ball at 6'' in length. I've been adding over time, with the smallest around 2''. Hardiest and most versatile cats I've ever had. They were the clean-up crew for tilapia shreds when I had pirayas, didn't eradicate my cherry shrimp, were not an attractive prey for my black wolf, left the odoe fry alone. You name it, they fit in your tank. I lost count of mine, but I probably have not quite a dozen in my 220 now.

Ten years is great!
 
Nice, would love to see a full view but I know it's impossible. I still have yet to see my 2 spotted. Been over a yr and I seen it maybe a few times.
