suncat/ bumblebee growth rate?

[beau1990]

Hey guys I recently (in the last 2-3wks) acquired both a sun cat and a bumblebee and I was wondering how fast do they grow? They're in my community 55 grow out and I was wondering how big they get and how long it takes for them to get big.

Specify please which bumblebee species you got.

South American?

Honestly I didn't know there were different types of bumble bee cats

It sounds like you don't know. Do you? I'd suggest going to Planet Catfish site and typing bumblebee in the quick search window top right and then studying the hits.

Thanks bud I’ll study the variants on planet catfish and I’ll take a couple pics at feeding and see if we can determine which it is

I think because it’s Microglanis iheringi ?

So it's the tiny SA kind. It won't grow past 2" or so. It can't be housed with a suncat for long or it might become a snack. The suncat could get to about 6" in the first year, might be more if the conditions are ideal. YMMV.

Sorry... but c'mon, bro! You can't possibly be that helpless? haha

Google search takes as much time and effort as posting your reply on MFK!

YMMV. also ymmv. written abbreviation for your mileage may vary: used, for example on social media and in text messages and emails, to mean that you understand people may have a different opinion or experience to yours: Their first album is better, but of course YMMV.
