Im thinking 1.5-2yrs. Orinos grow slow

That is why most people have Ocells or Monos. They want a show fish NOW! Orinos are a little bit slower, but definitely worth growing them out in the end.

They grow at a reasonable pace up to about 8" then slow WAYYY down.

Will the pbass grow to full size if fed mainly pellets instead of live food??

they grow as fast as they grow.

I think most people have Ocells or Monos because that is what is available to them at their LFS.
