Whats a the minimum size tank for a full grown rtc?

 

[Loves severums]

a pond.... or a 2000gal

 

[TheRealAndyCook]

fish only grow to the size of the tank they're put in


...and then die a painful death.

 

[NCStateFisher]

yep... haha - probably realistically 12'x6'x4' xD

 

[Loves severums]

they can get up to 4-foot.....

700 gallon tank if you have room for one.

 

[TheRealAndyCook]

its not really the gallons, imo. Its the length and width.

If your fish cant even turn around, hes not going to really enjoy himself is he?

they can get up to 4-foot.....

yep so 3x its length and a 6' width at the least, all about that MASSIVE footprint

Agreed! You could have a 1000 gallon tank, but if its 2 ftx2ft by 45ft tall, its not gonna do real well

12 feet by 8 feet and only 2 feet deep is = 1440 gal
