When do crossbacks cross?

[9Kredline]

Hello,

I've been searching around different websites and have yet to come up with anything substantial.

Around what size or age does a asian crossback actually cross? I'm curious because I have seen some pictures of large crossbacks @ 13"+ that are REALLY close to crossing but never fulling crossed.

Thanks guys!

Good question...plus one..

Crossing on an XB would depend on many factors. Like genes,age,waterquality,enviroment, etc.

Hao is correct. Also depends on aquarium background and lighting.

With all the above taken into consideration 1-3 years.

So if one is 15 inch + does that mean it is less likely to cross completely?
