Today I went to my lfs where I had previously purchased my green terror. To my surprise All of the GT's from the same batch at the store were atleast double the size of mine. I must be doing something wrong! What could it be? What would cause my gt to hardly grow at all when its siblings have doubled almost trippled in size?

That's not a very likely scenario. I'd guess they got in another larger batch. Fish at lfs are fed minimally as they really aren't looking for growth or extra waste.
 
I agree. other than that bad water quality, diet and stress. not suggestion any of that in your case but only scenario that would seem plusable(sp) if they did not get a new shipment in.
 
Agree with the last two posts. Infact, whenever I have pick up ANY fish from the LFS, it seems my fish has doubled in size of the LFS stock
 
One of our LFS change water all the time and feed heavier so you never know. In no way to disregard the above posts. I think they feed good quality food too, pretty good shop, good people, spotless tanks, never sick and never dead fish left in. Now if I could just get them to move to my side of town lol.

So the shop told you they are from the same batch?
 
they saw that you were coming and swapped out all the little ones with the larger ones. its a conspiracy.
 
I was there right when they opened and I saw them feeding them. I must admit they feed really heavy but there are alot of fish in the tanks too.
