thats given in best conditions. with my regime of only feeding once a day (but eat like pig!) it has shown prominent growth already but wont be 3" unless it is like 3 times feeding per day!

my tank is catch ur own food and/or take pellets and/or MP. so its just self survival. if the dorado manage to eat more it will grow fast. if not it will just grow slowly.
