jazsam Posted September 9, 2006 Share Posted September 9, 2006 are these fish tank buster material? I 'm thinking of getting a couple for my 4x2x2, but don't want them to out grow the tank. does anybody know how big they usually grow? cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gizmo42au Posted September 9, 2006 Share Posted September 9, 2006 They will probably outgrow that tank, but not for ages. In the wild they are a scholing fish, but this has not been replicated in home aquaria. If you get more than one then the smaller will be picked on.

10050460 Posted September 9, 2006 Share Posted September 9, 2006 the largest i've seen is about the 25cm, i think thats about as large as they grow i think! they wont outgrow in your 4x2x2! unlike an arowana or lungfish think of oscar and the archer is about 2/3 of a full grown mature oscar.

nick069 Posted September 9, 2006 Share Posted September 9, 2006 yeah i got 4 large archer fish 25cm, grew very quick from 12cm, so i got rid of 2 and kept 2, they wont grow much bigger than that maybe 1 or 2 cm bigger. Definatley not too big for a 4 footer nick! the largest i've seen is about the 25cm, i think thats about as large as they grow i think! they wont outgrow in your 4x2x2! unlike an arowana or lungfish think of oscar and the archer is about 2/3 of a full grown mature oscar.
