  1. Default When do angel fish reach full size?

    Ive just read somewhere that if a angel fish is proper kept and nurished it should be full size at max one year.

    I have had a angel fish for minimum 1 year and 6 months and it is not full size.

    Is this information wrong or have i mal nurished my angel fish in the early days.

    Thank you.

    Not in my experience, 'Sexual maturity' yes [Easily less than a year] - 'Full size' .. No. [Disclaimer: I have never been trying to grow them like weeds.]

    Please post a link to the source where you just saw that. I'd be interested to see what else they have to say.

    I thought that, ive been researching angel fish and have saw it takes that long to grow there sexual tubes.

    but i saw that info here,
    http://answers.yahoo.com/question/in...0090253AABX28m

    How long in your experience does it take to reach full size i thought it wouldve been much longer before researching as i know severums have got the same life span but they are slow growers anyway

    thank you for the commet also

    Do yourself and your fish a HUGE favor and never ever open that site again for a fish related question, Seriously.
    Yahoo answers, Where information goes to die.


    EDIT: BTW, That first reply refers to sexual maturity not 'full grown'. I infer that they imply that the ability to spawn = adulthood = 'fully grown' & this is not the case.

    Yahoo both on and off the computer. When you increase your knowledge you will understand why yahoo isn't the place to go for fish information, ever. Fish continue to grow through out their lifetimes. Most of the growth will be in the first 1 or 2 years, depending on the species, but most will continue to grow slowly for their entire lives.

    If it's called tourist season why can't I shoot them?
    Brutal honesty will be shown on this screen.

    I think my fish is adjusting well to the four gallon, He's laying on his side attempting to go to sleep on the bottom of the gravel.
    Tolerance is a great thing to have, so is the ability to shut up.

    Default I would agree with you but then we would both be wrong.

    +1 mommy

    I would add that badmans or seriously fishy are two WAY better resources IMO ottomh.

    Ye i agree as said i did see other inforation on other sites but i like to keep my research wide also yahoo sometimes has okay answers rarely but i guess there always more help than you who dismisses i asked them a question HEY
    [That's quite the word salad but I will attempt a reply]
    Yes indeed...

    You asked them a question and when the 'best answer' you received didn't make any sense... You came here.

    I am glad you use multiple sources, I was just trying to save you a trip to that particular apparently not so useful first stop, You are very welcome.
