Title: Just a quick question!
Post by: Mervyn on December 29, 2012, 04:19:32 PM

Hi,
I have been sitting here and watching my fish and thinking that they have grown quite a lot in the 4 weeks or so some of them have been in the tank.

Just a quick question, and I understand that it will probably vary as per fish type, but how old, in general, are they before they are "fully grown"?

It is very much a 'how long is a piece of string' question  ;D

As a general rule, the bigger the fish, the longer it takes them to reach full size. With small fish like I have, they are usually fully grown in a matter of a few months.
