mickgibbo Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 Whatst he best way to grow peppermints and albinos out quickly? What food / water conditions. I know they wont mature any quicker but just think they will be more robust at a larger size. Thanks Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 The same as growing out any fish,,,,,space, water quality, and food !!! In the old days the rule of thumb was one inch of fish to one gallon of water. Even with our new fangle power filters and all the rest, things haven't changed that much. Feeding to the max, good filtration and oxygen, big tanks, will get Ancistrus to 3 cm in about 12 weeks. That is a Qld 3cm !!! Not like the 6cm L333 that I got the other week that didn't even make a 3cm Qld fish Why don't all states settle on the international scientific "Standard Length" when measuring fish?????? Would save a lot of grief !!! Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll promise not to tell cheers marls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
