Depends on availability of foods and space. Growth rate simply varies and you don't expect all of them to grow similar. There is bound to be a runt in a group if it is outcompeted for food.

well i bought three. and i plan on getting at least 2 more. they are about 2 inches and theyre in my 30. i do believe in gonna switch up the 220 and put them and an aro in it. along with the pikes.

they are one of the more rapidly growing fish if fed right.

mine used to grow at one inch per month, which is about as fast as I have had a fish grow.

hey do grow quite fast, you can get an 1-2inch per month out of them if you feed well.

I've had three for about 4 months, and as soon as they got big enough to get the cichlid staple pellets down I could almost hear them growing, they were an inch and a half shorter than my smaller oscar a month ago. Now the bigger one is about a half an inch longer than the same oscar.

you may want to get some of the albinos or a gold form too to add color to your tank and variation
