Re: tank size, fry growth, and water changes

["alex pastor" <alexp@idirect.com>]

Relatively recently I read a response to a letter by Jack Whattley,  He did
an experiment whereby he used a very small tank but lots of daily water
changes and a larger tank with fewer water changes.  The fry in the smaller
tank grew faster than the ones in the bigger tank.   So, there must be
something to the pheromone/hormone hypothesis.  And I *won't* suggest this
as a post-graduate study project.....
