umbee help

[terrorG]

hi Everyone
i was wondering if any one had any advice on keeping umbee around tankspace :
so
@1 year old 30 gallons
@2 year old 60 gallons
@3 years old ...
i really want a umbee and i know i may be able to grow it i want it so it does not stunt the growth at all.
im not getting rid of my green terrors FYI or jacks :$
but i do want a umbee so am working stuff out
this is just enough to gather background knowledge on weather i can or cant get one

thanks in advance TerrorG

i own a cyber security business called meta defence labs and it is picking up!!! but i cnat resist pushing the buy button on a umbee :$ i saw some on another topic and they look lovely i really want one.

It would be best for you just to start out with a six foot tank. 180 gallons will hold 1or a pair for up to about 3 years

The growth rate is phenomenal and I can't stress enough how important it is to have a large tank. They will need three hundred plus gallons for life, the bigger the better

In the first year, you could theoretically have a 10-12 inch fish. I agree with Justin Holland you should start with a 6ft tank. Then move up as nessicary. Mine have gone from under an inch to the largest pushing 4 inches in three months. And I have the smaller variant of umbee.
