2' comes from a general average of the fish on here, ive only seen a few very large ones yours being the biggest and one other in the low 30s a while back.necrocanis;2820137; said:hmmm, I don't know where the 2' comes from but these fish attain 2-3' in the first 2-3 years with ease. If your's maxes out at 2' it has been severely stunted. Good luck and plan for a 4' min, 5' max fish.
