They grow about 12-14" the first year and then slow down and they get to 3'+ you should look at a coral catshark (Atelomycterus marmoratus) or a marbled catshark (Atelomycterus macleayi) they stay kinda small 24" or less

I need to get an iPhone then cause my pics always suck.

How'd you get such amazing pictures? I also love your Achilles he's a good looking fish

Alright that makes since it does look pretty cramped my tank is pretty empty compared to yours. I wish mine looked like yours mine's pretty bland.

I'm still looking for one. My lfs had one come in last week but he wouldn't eat and he didn't look like he was gonna make it and I don't want to risk ordering a $200 fish. How'd a 7 1/2" fish out grow a 6' tank?

I can try to get a pic but he won't hold still and these patches are hard to see so I'm not sure if they would even show in a picture. I'll pick up some fish food algae. And is it normal for fish to get stress spots and if it's getting worse then that means he's getting more stressed?

No there more like blotches than spots

I don't think they come and go but they look like they're spreading and it's just dark areas on his body and fin

He's eating great I feed him blanched romaine lettuce, nori, spirulina brineshrimp, mysis shrimp, and something called emarld entree that has almonds of things in it. I don't see any aggression the only time my trigger gets mean is when I feed them he's somewhat timid to eat because the trigger...

It's a 135g salinity 1.024, temperature 77-78, ph 8.0, ammonia 0, nitrite 0, nitrate 30. There's a Picasso trigger and a pair of percula clowns
