I've had this guy since he was 3 inches, he's around 6-7" now. He's a looker but he's extremely skittish. Does anyone know what they max out at?

Very nice. I've yet to keep liberifer, but I've had wild rotkeils, also skittish, but eventually became a lot more tame, it just took time. I'd think you could expect something similar.
Since I haven't kept them personally, I won't say much on size, except to say until they were recently described they were mistakenly thought to be severus, which most references I've seen say can get 10-12 inches.

Thanks guys.
I hope that he tames down, I can't seem to find much info on size online and I've only seen pictures of smaller ones. I would love to see this guy at 10-12" but I have a feeling that they don't grow that large.
He is gorgeous. I just picked up 4 WC ones between 3-4 inches. They were pretty skittish for a week, but now they are acting a lot more social. After a few days, I added some small fish from my grow out tank to possibly help them feel better. I put in a mix of 4 small Geophagus winemerilli and Tapajos, as well as a large angel. They are in a 75 with 3 pieces of driftwood and some tall fake plants.
Thanks bro.
Thanks, he was in a pretty heavily planted tank with 6 wc geophagus abalios, and 3 atabapo pikes and was skittish even then.
They are in this video toward the end when I pan over to the 180. Damn I miss these tanks.
