They get to be about 4", are omnivores, and you can put one in a 40g. They are nocturnal, so don't expect to see them active during the day.
i have one, i rarely see him apart for when he comes to feed...my uderstanding is that its possible they can max at 8"?
I have a rescued striped Raphael that is about 5 years old and is a tad over 5".
They will eat anything that they can suck into their mouths (they LOVE shrimp pellets!).
They are nocturnal, but IME he readily comes out when I feed, but is very skitish!

I think I might of heard that too when we got one from petco a while back. I haven't seen him in ages...I don't know if he died a while back and we flushed him or if he just hides all the time...and I mean all the time.
^^^agree with all that . mine is about 5" too , i heard they get to 6" . mine grew from about 2.5 inches to 5 inches in about 5 months . they will grunt when you handle them .
