Nile perch GROWTH RATE?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I've had mine for about the same ammount of time and must have packed on about a half an inch.I got it to take dead fish now so it should'nt be long before it eats krill and or pellets the way my previous one from years ago did.That one was'nt a fast grower either and it neared ten inches before it passed on.I was'nt doing the regular water changes back then that I do now and there is still little difference in growth rate so I don't know what else can be done...

50% water change a week makes a difference if you don't already do them...
