what tank are you going to put your RTC in as i see the biggest tank you have is a 150g

the RTC is going to need a much bigger tank than that in less than a year

oh lord. i do not need you to try to school me on what fish i own or buy or what tank i put it in. thanks for the info tho but mid next year (which is less then 7 months) ill have either a 500+ gal glass tank, 800+ plywood tank, or a 1000+ gal indoor pond. so no worries kiddo. ill even post pics mid next year so you can see my progress on my monsters.

CHILL!!!!!
We have been here before. In the UK they are now getting quite common they grow quick and eat like pigs. No one knows how big they get yet have had my one for a year he has gone from 4” to 18” in a year but I don’t stuff them with food like some people do. You will need a very large tank or a pond and fish that can’t fit in his rather large mouth. Just look at it as another RTC. Large tank, large water changes and a lot of food.
