there very high priced fish around 30 bucks at my local fish store but there very agresive when older but can any one tell me how fast they grow?

he was $35. i had store credit so though so i didn't have to pay anything. they are less agressive then a normal jack. as for how fast they grow, i'm not sure. i don't think it's all thast quick though.

he has been filling out very nicely. he's not growing very fast though. about 1/2" a month in a 72 gal.

I can't say for sure from this shot but chances are it's not a Surinamensis
