Those are freaking huge, but I guess everyone usually loses patience with them

Yeah, superslow growth rates. Well worth it, great community fish with nice colors.

Not a poly update but a sad update.

I came home from a 2 day trip to the beach and found the het unable to swim upright. So I had to put the little guy down with clove oil.

Not sure what happened and he was only 5 years old.

My little guy made it to 10 1/2 inches! For all those thinking their het's will never grow or get that large, there is hope, they do grow!

Anyway sad moment since I raised the little guy from about 1/2" long. So the Pearsei is it for larger top dwelling fish. Dont even know how the het's absence will effect its personality. It has got more shy as time has passed and less tank mates. Dont even know what I should do now. Tank does look empty.

Sorry to hear that, i thought hets dont grow that big.

Hets are so underrated man.


P PYRU a few of them could be a great combo with your pearsei.
