saudukar Posted December 4, 2003 Share Posted December 4, 2003 In a 2 foot tank you should expect them to grow to about 0.8-1cm fairly quickly depending on the quality and frequency of feedings. They will probably stay around that size in a 2 footer for around 1.5 - 2 months then start to stunt after that time. Id recommend a meduim size 3 footer after they reach that 0.8-1cm stage or otherwise they will never grow fast enough.Keeping them in a 2 footer is great but it is fairly small for ALOT of babies. If there are only a few babies then they might grow more substancially larger.Baby brine shrimp will make them grow exponentially faster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd seriously consider trying to find a 3+ft(or even 2x2) tank for them.LataMatt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
