What is the growth rate for a spotted congo puffer?

[SandNukka15]

Monster aquarium had a sweet deal so I picked up a 1.5 inch spotted congo. He's in a 29 gallon by himself at the moment.

Does anyone know what the growth rate of these guys usually are?

Not too sure about these guys growth rate as i’ve never had the chance to keep them sadly so im probably not the best person to ask

Bump... anyone know?

No experience with these guys, but from what I know most puffers are pretty slow growing. Maybe a quarter of an inch per month.

Extremely slow like grammodes slow

So update... my lil guy i got in july was about 1.5 inches he's gotten to 2.25 now. Its hard to get him well fed with the 10 congos in the tank but I try to hold his food in place with tweezers while I throw out other frozen foods to distract the congos...and it seems to work well.
