hey whats the growth rate for an ornate pim catfish, pimelodus ornatus? i cant find anything about them online. thnx. he is 2.5 inches now, and i just need to know about how long till he hits around 6 inches?:confused:
 
really, oh thank G. that means he will be there for only about 5-7 months, which is good and bad i guess. do you know what the growth rate for a convict cichlid, maybe he could go in the convict feeders tank.

very slow for convicts or the catfish

Convicts, They are a small specie so it takes awhile for them to reach their full grown size, Since a fish like P Bass get about 2-3 ft they grow faster since they get much larger.
 
turns out ornate pim growth rate is actually faster. he is currently growing at around 2 inches a month. currently 7 inches and still growing like a weed
