I've had mine for a good 18 months now and he's still tiny. I'd say5 inches max. is this normal? I'm not worried about him, he feeds, swims about (now and then) and seems happy. just doesnt seem to have grown much!
Pretty slow growing, I have one that is about 6" and has only grown about 2" in 10 months and he has plenty of room, eats well etc, they just dont grow quickly.
