nice cons, i love this thread. I never get sick of looking at beefy cons.lol
 
I think this thread deserves to be resurrected. :-)

Here's my 3 1/2 year old male marble. At last measurement he was 5.5" TL, maybe a bit larger now.

Now that's a beautiful con!
But, it's also a perfect example of the differences between total length and standard length measurements. I'd say a good 2" on this fish.

Beautiful fish still.
 
Ok since it's back, I said in another post I was at Petsmart yesterday buying fish food and noticed this guy so I bought him little 2.5" humpy head pics are not the best you can get the idea. I think he has the potential to grow into a mini monster.

Natalie that con is gorgeous! I've never been crazy about marbles but that one changes everything. The fins are amazing.

I have 6 con's this one is the oldest around 3yrs is my best guess. I've had him for 2yrs. He's called King Henry for all the wife murdering he's done. He's not allowed to date anymore. I've never measured him, I'm guessing around 5".

He doesn't like having his picture taken.

A mother and daughter (half in the pic) mom is 2yrs old. They're both around 3" now.

I'm excited to see how his hump grows as he gets older/bigger - it's doubled in size since I got him, he's around 3"

And here's his colors when they're breeding - this pic was taken about 6 weeks ago - check out how much the hump grew from then to the first pic
