Vitiates or Armatus?

I would say get the Armatus, while they are avaiable, but like said earlier about growth, if you have a small tank the Armatus will cost more soon, as he will need a bigger tank. Now the Vatt though beautiful at about 10in or so, they seem very uneventful at smaller sizes and don't seem to grow as fast. I have two ATF around 6in and 4in, and just pciked up two armatus at 2in will see by Dec what the growth rates turn out to be.
 
idk about vittatus not growing fast

west1 had one that grew very fast, mine was slow because i only fed it once or twice a week, but if you feed them a lot and the quality of the water/size of tank is really good they can grow quickly on you
 
I might just buy both since this is probably the most difficult decision I've had to make concerning fish. Would it be safe to keep these two together? If not I'm most likely going to go with the Armatus.
 
armatus for me as they are rarer than vittatus here in the uk anyway.....
 
Its funny since i was just thinking which of these two fish I should get myself... personally, Vitattus, but both are pretty cool fish... whatever you get, be sure to post photos & keep us updated :)
