Tigrinus questions

[slippery slimecoat]

I have some questions about this cat.

#1) What could I expect for a growth rate of one starting at ~4" (without the trailers)?

#2) how difficult are they to pellet train?

#3) Would it be compatible with clown loaches?

#4) If it is compatible with CL at what size would I have to worry about it trying to eat a 5" CL?

#5) Are they very active, or mostly just hang out in the current?

#6) could one be housed in a 6'x3' tank for life?

1) I got mine about 14 months ago at 3 inches he is 15 inches or so now
2)not hard but at a small size need a lot of food so not good to train until about 6 inches
3)Sure Until he can swallow them
4)my 15 incher is with 5 to 8 inch cls and no problems yet....
5) Mine is fairly active especially when hungry but i have heard others are not.
6)I would think so

Thanks for the input. Looks like I will have to hold off. Won't be upgrading for about two years, and that growth rate is just too fast for it to not outgrow my current tank before then. My lfs had brought one in and I got excited hahaha.
