Mines currently around 20" and relatively peaceful. Lives at same dark end of pond with 2 ft red tail and slightly larger giraffes, but co exists with 10" pims and a 28" wykii.
do see scrape marks on him but assume that's maybe the pims. Again only eats pellets and ignores white fish and mussel.
Interestingly I was talking to an catcher/importer/seller recently about these and he still believes we do not know the true size these fish can reach.

Precisely the same here. Only pellets are taken, but with great appetite.
Only recently when I added small glass minnows to the offering, an anchovy species (a thin fish, about 2"), have I noticed ours to start taking those. Still ignore pilchards, a herring species, which are slightly bulkier and bigger, 3"-5".
His in great shape.nice n plum. not owned one myself but definately up there in my top favorite looking cats
Looks good but one thing that throws me off is the eyes, they look like they are bulging out unnaturally.
When I had a supposed columnaris outbreak in all my tanks, many and diverse fish displayed a similar symptom.

What other symptoms did the fish have? I dont see anything else that would lead me to think that.
