Re: stunted growth??

[Len/Geo <szucs@total.net>]

Hi Michael

Last  September 5, I purchase two male cacatuoides.  Both were the size
of a neon tetra. The male I use for breeding in a 15 gallon tank, now is
close to 3 inches long. Other one I have in a 35 gallon community tank
is little over one inch long. The only different I saw in the two Apisto
was, the  bigger male was very aggressive, even when I first purchase
them. I do feed them the same food.
Wait and see what happen.

Good Luck
George
