Now i know that a good sign of a healthy corydora is long barbels, but what I was wondering is: Is there a length these will stop growing or will they just keep growing?

The species I'm on about inparticular, are bronze corys :) I only ask because I've noticed that most of my bronze corys have now got barbels of about 10mm (which I think is pretty impressive)
 
I don't know if they grow huge or not but I know If they look big it's a great sign.

I had peppers ages ago and they certainly didn't have so long barbles as my new sterbai.
 
I'm pretty sure that they don't grow on forever :S

Anyway I think that healthy barbels will come to a fine point, whereas worn down barbels will be quite noticably blunt and short.
