How long in 422?

[Ahtec]

Hello everyone,
I have a pair of pups living in a 422.
Anyone tried before? Will the pups size be stunned if I let them home there for 6-8mths more?

No problem lah bro! Important thing is their diet and water quality! I'm letting my 4 pieces stay in my 5x2.5x2 for another few years then transfer to bigger home

4pcs uhh? I'm only worried of the 2ft width. Seem quite small and squeezy if they reach 8".

a pair should be fine for a year plus..most important is the filteration.

To hit 8 inch only takes couple of months , very very fast one...

No problem for even up to 10 inch, as many bros mentioned , take care of your water is more important .

smaller tank will make feeding easier during juvenile stages.

Hehes, ya. I listened to your advices bro. That's why I keep them in a 422 now. However another bro told me to change it asap, because bigger tank help them grow faster.

Smaller tank is preferred for pups. Just make sure tat you perform frequent small water change. that will ensure good water quality and good growth rate.
