This topic hasn't been talked about for awhile. I was in the LFS buy my house, the owner of this shop is a nut, I have only bought an emerald crab from him never fish. But go in to see fish, he packs all his tanks with fish, it doesn't matter what kind they are and they are all 30 gal tanks. So he made a comment about angels, he loves angels and has own person tanks of angels (probably all 30 gal tanks) his comment was "he'd put a queen in a 135 because it will never grow to its full size". So I've been looking up fish growth being stunted and found 3 main reasons for this.
1. Poor nutrition
2. Poor environment
3. cramped space
It's seams 1 and 2 are important factors in the stunted growth, no. 3 is up in the air. The conclusion I have come up with is why fish do not reach there full size is, we must not be feeding the proper diet or cramped spaces, because we all check are pram's. Unless the fish dies before it reaches a rip old age then all bets are off.
