I just have a few questions about groupers:

1. How big do they get? My father used to live in San Francisco and knew some divers who worked on oil rigs. He said that he has heard stories about groupers big enough to swallow people, or even small cars! One story that he told me is about two divers working on an oil rig. A giant grouper came along and sucked one of them into it's mouth! Fortunately, it didn't like the taste of rubber, so it spit him out.
2. This question ties into the first one. Is the type of grouper I described above the same kind that are sometimes sold in aquarium stores? Also, are the aquarium ones the same as Sea Bass? (mmm... that's some fine eatin')
 
The biggest groupers can get is 20 inches. That is if you're talking about polka dot groupers.
