i was curious to know because i rescued one from wal mart about a year ago and he tripled the size in my 30 gal saltwater. but then i got a couple others off craigs list and they have not grown at all. im thinking her batch was stunted and never really recovered. i really want to watch them grow :/

do you think i should transfer the little ones to a new home/ tank so i can grow out my biggest? (no matter what someone is going in a 55 saltwater when i figure out what to so. (marine environment of course)

everyone is starting to show signs of slight aggression and they spend alot of their day in their own territories.

i have had everyone for about a year and my largest was 1" now hes about 4"
my other ones has stayed at the 2-3" range.
 
i was thinking that would work but then i figured i dont have enough space even at that for all five of them. poo i just relised i forgot to mention how many i had. im sorry. i guess if the other guys dont grow and my big guy only does that would work. that was my original plan but i wasnt quite sure of it :p
 
Put them all in the 55 for now, and if you feel you need to take some out later on, put two in the 30.
 
oh totally i have some videos and what not too. but i just dont want to get yelled at that my tanks are overstocked by crazy weirdo's that dont understand there is no real recipe. how do i post pics and what not?
 
Just as a heads up, each of those GSP will eventually need a tank of about 30G, so depending on how many you have, you may need a tank of 100G+ just to house them all, not to mention, GSP can be nippy little buggers...
