RTMS

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I would think at that size they would be fine. Pearsei Are pretty mild mannered and they will grow quickly.
 
Ok just wanted to check. Anyone know the growth rate of both? I have heard from everyone the Pearsei are
Very fast growers but what about the RTMs. Also Kevin I am trying to get my videos uploaded and for some reason it won't let me do it

I have a juvenile RTM. I bought it in December at 2 inches, it is closing in on 4(maybe 3.5) inches right now.....It is growing out in my 125 with my eclectic mix of CA /SA cichlids. So to sum up my experience, it grows faster than a bifa, but slower than a red isletas, zonatus, and a texas.....probably just a hair faster than the festae that I have. Though this is just my experience, and he/ she is definitely the smallest in the tank (meaning it eats last and the least amount).

Either way, I love mine!
 
I've had my pair of RTM's for a year and they have gone from 4" to 9"(male) and 7"(female). The female has grown much slower due to the constant spawning. I think for a fish that only gets to around 12" they growth rate is normal.
 
Thanks everyone I just wanted to make sure the 75 wouldn't be too small
