Curious to know, how long would it take for a fish that is supposed to reach 10" to reach that mark? Take the Coral Hogfish for example. If I have one that is about 3" long now and is fed twice a day, and is housed in a 135g tank with a few other fish, how long before it reaches the 10" mark? Six months? A year or two? Would it ever reach the 10" mark in captivity? I guess I simply want to know wheter or not fish get as large in captivity as mentioned in marine books, or is that the size they reach in the wild.
