Fellow MFK members, what's the slowest growing fish that you had ever kept? Mine is a thinbar datnoid? What's yours? Also, what's the sloweste predator growing fish?
Uhh... my slowest to date would probably be my royal pleco. 2 1/2 inches to 6 inches in like.. 2 1/2 years(and he has all the driftwood in the world to feed on, along with plenty of greens).
It has to be my female Parachromis loiselli. I got her at about 4 1/2" 9 months ago. She grew to 7" in 5 months and then started breeding. It seems like she hasn't grown at all in the last 4 months since she's been breeding.
