Thanks mate.
Hard to try and measure but about 40cm or 15 to 16 inch at a guess.

Definetly gotten a lot thicker and taller the last few months too.

Loves the space of the bigger tank.

Welcome back!
I love it too when he is really red. His colour is completely mood dependant though.
He can look really light silver, almost white in colour when chilling out.
Then turns nice and red like in those photos when he thinks food is coming or when I am interacting with him.
Then his juvenile black vertical bars even come out when he is eating something aggressively.
