yeah he is a nice boy ain't he bud, to give an idea of his size, the 2 lower kubs are both over 3 inch long SL, his buddie is slightly smaller than the big man.

Nice group of fish :)

I really like how you get the whole fish and the colours are not drowned out.

Nice Kubs Mick. Nice Striata too. 8)

Kubs do like eating! Mine do that too. If I come up to the tank they all come out or go to the surface for food.

How long did they take to get to that size?

i wish i could say i'd grown it myself bud, but i bought the big ones that size, the smaller kubs are growing though but i reckon it's going to take a good few years to get them anywhere near the size of the biggun.

cheers Jason & Emma.
