Cory rate of growth????

Last Saturday I bought a very small Skunk Cory (@ 1 inch) to put in a 5g with a tetra school. When I sat down tonite to watch them, I realized he's grown about 3 or 4 centimeters. Do they grow very quickly very rapidly? Or maybe he's had some of that liquid water from that planet or strange growth hormone (we're on a well)? I know they grow to only @2 inched. Just, wow, that's fast.

Hey, I know, truth stranger than fiction--it happens out here. When my QH mare was 4 yo, she was a runt. I moved her out here (to the country)in early Nov., by spring she'd grown 3 inches in height, put on 300 pounds of muscle!!! Then she grew more between 6 and 8--now she's 15h 2 inches, 1200 pounds of solid brick house at 8.5yrs. Something's in the water--I ain't lyin'. This little sucker (no pun intended) honestly grew that much this week. If they school, what is a good comfortable number for them? Thank you please. :soda: :fairy: :joe:

yah, thanks, I'm preparing a 55 and this small one will become a quarantine tank. Little dude will move out. Thanks for advice. suckers, uh uh, can't have them, i was just playing with words--sucker fish freak me out (some scary episode of X-Files, mutant human) big sucking mouth, suck the life right out of a body!! :duh:
