Just got two at about two inches or so!!! Read another thread that they like to tear up plants and substrate.

Is there any other info on these crazy guys???
I had to rescue them becasue they were being kept with dwarf puffers at the LFS and being torchured to death! It was pitiful! Dwarf Puffers are nasty....

I knew they may be aggressive and grow to quite a size. Does anyone know how big they get exactly or any other info would be great!

I have NEVER seen these guys at any LFS in Houston. Found them at a Northwest Houston Petsmart that keeps their tanks VERY clean....
 
I bought 2 very young ones about 6 months ago. They're in a 36 galon tank, and now are about 5 inches ( very skinny) long.

I find them very peaceful. Most of the time they're burrowed under the gravel.

They love when color bits fall the gravel.

Very cute fish.
