metynnis fasciatus SIZE?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
My 450 gallon and 520 gallon are too small? My 230 was just a growout for the fasciatus and since they will be not big enough I traded for blue hooks. It was all for nothing as I need to sell them too as my 18" armatus took an eye out already so they need to go now. I am really getting tired of finding tank mates for the fish I want to keep.

I feel ya!! I ended up keeping my TATF solo in a 270 because no other fish seemed to work!!
 
I based my post on the information you had provided in this post. Sry if that offended you. All I was doing was merely trying to give advice.

Vince BP gets a little testy but he is cool.lol

Holly Molly vincentwugwg!!! Please show me a wide bar 16"s or larger!!?? And here I thought I had seen the largest at 12"s-13"s!!

I have a 14 incher and I am pretty sure someone posted a 15 incher recently

Cool. Out of curiosity Jason, is your 14"er eyeballed or actual measurement? Not that I don't believe you as you are an upstanding gentleman, but the 12"ers I saw were HUGE & MASSIVE I can just imagine a 14"er/15"er. As you know once they pass the 8" mark, an extra inch is substantial as they grow vertical/horizontal.

I sold 2 off and measured them when out at 12 and this guy is noticeably bigger.. so eyeballed but bigger then a measured 12!
 
I had to put down a couple of 16 YO redhooks today. One was 11" other 10". One had gone blind and couldn't find food, the other just quit eating.
