min tank sizes for a jar?

[tubbyrob]

i was wondering wat is the min size for a jar? how big can i expect him to get. Thanks for your input.

i believe a 180 is requisite...

Yea, I would say the 180-200 gallon range for sure. Wide, not tall.

 

[tubbyrob]

how wide should it be does the length matter and how big can i expect my lil fish to get.

I would say optimum tank size for a jar would be 6'x3'...

this has been covered numerous times even since I joined and that wasn't very long ago, but a 180 (6x2) should last quite a long time, but they will probably eventually need something longer and wider, maybe even taller IMO

6'3 would be the best, but 180 should be ok

6x2x2 minimum, expect atleast 24" in length for your jar, up to 30" if your lucky.

I'm planning to get a Jar as soon as the Tank compeletes the Cylce process but I only have a 60Gal. How big does a Jar have to be before moving to a bigger (and permanent) Tank?

6x2 bare minimum.

My jardini was 22" when I got him and he was 4 years old if that helps.

I would move him out of the 60g when he's 8-10"
