Need info on Ocellaris

[Jakob]

They are for the first time in the country, unfortunetly for $25 each.
I am going too get 2 atleast.

What is they're maximum size?

What is they're minimum tank size when full grown?

How fast do they grow, and when do they start to grow slower and how fast do they grow then?

I will ofcorse start by feeding them feeders only, but when should i stop that?

I will need those answers really quickly!

any1?

 

[channarox]

how big will they be?
they should grow at about an inch per mth until they hit a foot or so...
they get around 2 foot in captivity.
ive never had problems getting them to eat anything and everything at any size.
my method of getting them off live is the use of teacher fish.
good luck.
you'll love em!

its really up to you if you want to feed them feeders to pump them up first.
