A 40 gallon is way too small for most plecos and Sailfin's get up to 2 feet long.I'm in RTP, and I'd love to have him in my 40 gallon. I work a lot and as a result my spare time is slim, would you by chance be willing to meet halfway?
That is interesting. How long does it take them to reach full size, or when do they stop growing? My common is 14" now and they are both 4 years old.FWIW, I have never seen a sailfin get to be 2 feet. I have 2 adults now, and they have maxed out at 12 inches. This is with huge water changes (180 gallons every 1-2 weeks). I have seen commons get to 2 feet though.
