Mine hit 20" in under 2 years and then almost stopped he's 3 now and about 20 1/2- .
Mine eats what ever the Oscars get. Good pellets 2-3 times a day. I throw in all kinds of bugs and garden worms
Loves shrimp and cut fish about 2-3 times a week, occasionally mice or baby quail.
The only fish it's gets along with are large Oscars and fast adult silver dollars. Eats out of my hand and is not timid or spooky
The 6 th. pic. He's sound asleep.

Thank you! Definitely an awesome fish to have in my living room. My 2 year old loves talking to it and hanging out near the tank lolCould be.?
In a single spawn in all fish you will have some that are bigger than average and some that are smaller.
I have 4 mono peacocks out of the same spawn one is About 13" and the smallest is only about 7" the other 2 about 9-10 "
They are about 1year old now.
Your jardini looks nice and tall and healthy . Looks supper . I would not worry about it. What's 6 ", it's 4years or older and still alive and healthy. ??? . Most people's die in under a year from improper care.
LOL. I can watch mine for quite along time. Cool fish to have.Thank you! Definitely an awesome fish to have in my living room. My 2 year old loves talking to it and hanging out near the tank lol
