That is a truely awsome fish. I love my lil guy he is only 3" but I heard they only get 6". If you could take a pic with a size reference like a tape measure Id like to show my LFS. I love it when they float face down like a leaf. Great fish!!

Another perfect example of fish getting significantly larger than what is commonly cited in literature.

And he eats market shrimp now and seems to be still growing.If he does not get his shrimp ever day he turns into a big jerk, otherwise he is mellow.

Very nice! I gave one to my friend a couple of years ago...I think it's around 7" now. Grew a lot faster than I thought it would.

wow sweet! i thought they would max out at about 6" myself, had no clue they got that big!

i'm not doubting you, but can you take any pics with something of scale in the photo? please!

i went to pick up some "5-6 inch" clown loaches that turned out to be 3" pushing 4" the other day.

sorry the fish is in with giant angelfish and huge plecos,not much of a size reference.
