Can't wait to see them!

Curious what the 3+ means after the fish name as those fish are a different price than those without it.

A couple of hours in the tank, already ate a small portion. This fish will test a theory I have with respect to LFS and purchasing fish. Back in December the vendor got in three batches of polys, endis, congicus and PBB. All were listed as 4-4.5".
I ordered two congicus as soon as he received them, those 4" fish are now pushing15". This guy is only 5" which confirms the common practice of LFS barely feeding their stock to keep both sizes and costs down. This period of stunting I believe does impact their growth rate and potential size. So while 5 months is not excessive and I know I will see a growth spurt, I will always wonder what it would be like now had I got him back in December when I got the congicus.
