Just how big do they really get in an aquarium? I'm not fussed about the size listed in literature.
I've had mine nearly 2 years-eats like a pig-but hasn't grown at all. It's 4" at a push maybe.
Anyone kept or seen a big one at all?

what did you feed yours when it was around 1inch ?

thats the thing mate-I got around the size it is now.

Eats only frozen market shrimp/prawn or bloodworms. Won't look at frozen fish and will take Hikari Massivore/Carnivore but immediately spits it out. It eats huge food items for its size though
