Yep, kept in an appropriatly sized tank 20"

yep and they look so cool gliding around at 20" put that together with the fact that they have so much open swimming room in the big tank, i think they will love it.

lovely fish. I've had one a couple of years and hes about 7 inches now, very peaceful but I wonder if they stay that way in a group as they get older?

yeah that is what i am wondering, never seen anyone keep a group pf them before. i may add some more, imagine them in the 5*3*2 in a nice group slinking around.

I had one that at 4 years had gotten to 14 inchs. Its really best when they get bigger not to keep a group of them, one is best as the electrical impulses that they use for finding food will interfere with each other. Max for a 5 ft tank would be 2.

i agree with that also my lfs has a huge one around 18 inches in their 500 gallon display tank and it is awesome to watch gliding around whenever im there i spend a good 15 mins watching it lol

I will see how they get on as they mature, won't be a problem if they start to argue, as i have plenty more big tanks for them to go into.
