im thinking about getting a couple of megalops cyprinoides but its really difficult to find any information about them when it comes to keeping them in aquariums,from what i gather they grow about 3ft unlike there bigger bros megalops atlanticus.
any info would be much help,mainly:
what is there growth rate?
how big do they grow in aquarium?
are they peacefull fish apart from what they can fit in there mouths?
etc....
 
Mine is very peaceful. I think of him as a big dumb labrador in fish form: he gets along with everybody and try to eat anything that fits in his mouth. Mine has zero aggression.I've had him for abijt four months and he's grown about an inch a month, and that's NOT powerfeeding! I suspect if.you power feed this.guy something like Maasivore he would get big really quick.
