Farm boy nemurus, stuck at 1' for 4 years

So this story was cut short a while ago.

I noted the nemurus's MIA probably only after several months that it was gone. I can't be sure what happened to it and could only blame one of our 3' arapaima, which grew up from 1.5' in that 4500 gal tank and had been testing for size and swallowability all its tankmates for months before I had enough of it and moved it to the other 4500 gal with the RTC etc. That was back in 2018. I was very sad over it, as I was attached to that fish.

I would these again if or when I get a chance.
 
I like them but I think there is general confusion over type. I don't personally think that all the fish on pfc as nemurus are actually all the same. My view is that nemurus is not a 2ft fish, with males topping out somewhere nearer 10" and females 12-14" .
There are however I believe other albinos bred than nemurus and I think capitulum could be an albino wykiodes look alike.
Think there is still a lot of confusion over types and more clarity needed.

I’m so sorry for your loss! I think stunning and entertaining fish.
 
The nemurus when we got it back in 2010 in a 120 gal grow out with 60 other fish species:
