Mine are at the 12 inch mark right now. They just keep growing.

nice, are they in the same tank?

Fishbase.org lists bocourti as 20 cm but I think that is incorrect. I am fairly certain they get bigger than that. According to Rusty Wessel in this article (http://www.cichlid-forum.com/articles/cic_bocourti.php) they get to at least 12 inches. As Rusty was one of the first people to get them out of Central America, I am going with his opinion.

They are in seperate tanks but I had them together for years with no problems.
