Pick up four of these little guys in the last couple of weeks. They are about 2 @ 2", and 2 @ 3". What can I expect for a growth rate from these guys? I have them in f/w right now but will be converting them to brackish (after I sell the rest of my stock), then to s/w as they mature. They are in a over filtered 180g right now but may be going into possibly a 240 or 280, if I can find one at a reasonable price. They are eating like hogs, and have been doing so since being introduced to the 180. They seem to really like the Tetra flakes, but will eat anything I put in. Mostly shrimp pelets, Cichlid pelets (floating and sinking) and the ocasional feeding of frozen blood worms.
Thanks.

I have a friend who has them around 6" vertically. They look cool so i asked him about their growth rate, he said approx. 1/2" to 3/4" a month in his experience. I love how they school. Hope this helps.
