The large fish obtain 90% of their growth in their first 10% of their lifespan. Not a rule but a fairly good general guideline.
For example a Hippo Tank with a lifespan of 60 years will grow to about 12" in the first 6 years and then it will take about 54 years to gain the last 1" or so.
A large Angel that grows to 20" and lives 40 years will grow to about 18" in 4 years.
