What size tank can a Ornate be kept in?

Can it be kept in with a Del and how much should a 5-8 in cost?

One more, anyone selling Ornates and willing to deliver/ship to NYC?

Thanks,
 
they grow to about 18-20" and can possibly reach 27".. I'd say they are fine in 24" wide tank.. If possible try to get your hands on a del that is bigger than the ornate as the ornates can be pretty pushy/aggressive towards smaller polys..

i would disagree, ornates would be good for a loooong time in a 125, 6'x18", and while they can be pushy i have found that its nothing serious
 
I keep mine in 120g along with endlis, sens, albinos, lap, congi, no prob so far.
 
growing up to 20" would take a long long long long long long long time........
