Mine went from an inch to 5", (7" for the alpha) in about 2 +years.
Wow, some serious spangling on that one! Is that male?
I believe it was a male, in the pic, the red color was just starting to show in the fins.
About a week after the pic was taken, it managed a suicidal leap.
I found it on the floor next morning like this.

Now that's a shame, he was a beauty. Looks like a christmas tree with that amount of blue and gold freckles. I've noticed my smaller one has very defined barring and few blue freckles. Not nearly as colorful, hoping that comes with age.
Oh yes age is definitely a factor for the coloration. If you have not seen Mel O you tube video of his 3 1/2 year old pair you must!
Thanks for posting that video. That is quite the pair of Ornatum. Gives me something to shoot for.
Beautiful fish, like the aquascape.
Thank you. The sand is a mixture of Estes PermaColor Quartz. With some malaysian driftwood and almond leaves in that picture.
