I think one year yes, two years though? Most all silver aros are 24" long within 2 years, a 75g tank is nonsense.monster_lover01;3030002; said:$25 for a baby silver? That's expensive. I can have baby silver for $6, but I'm from the Philippines. Fish are cheap here. For the tank I suggest that you get a 75g tank which can house the silver for about 1-2 years to prevent stressing the fish.
