Vatf growth rate

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Ask Vince what size his grow out tank was and how many were in there to add competition at feeding times. Details are important ;)

Not everyone is going to have the same results.

I think I got some from the same batch as Vince and my lone survivor is 7". It gets picked on and moved around a lot so growth has been minimal - maybe 4-5" in a year?

I power fed massivore/carnivore and a seafood mix (squid, shrimp, clams etc) twice a day for the first 8 months. Started them off in a 6ft x 30 inch x 30inch tank... then after a few months, they lived in a 1000 gallon bowfront. Now they are in a 2000 gallon tub 8.5 ft x 6ft. They will be moved to a tank soon...:)

Ok but how fast did they grow?
 
Mine have grown 1/2" a month. I only feed once a day though.
