size of wilds

[brady]

Was wondering what is the full grown size of an average, healthy wild in a tank say a75 with all the normal w/c, ect.

Same as domestics. I have wilds that are 6" and I have wilds that are 7"+.

Brady, I have had wilds range from five inches (like a wild green) to seven inches (wild Trombeta).

Everything between the 5 1/2 inch and 7 inch can be considered a normal size in wilds. Sometimes we see discus at plus 7 inch but be aware that this are often older dominant males. I have seen wilds as large as 9 inch (Lago Paraconi at Hustinx Belgium). Health is not in the size dough but in wilds easily detected by the brightness of the eyes and the thickness of the body and their overall appearance. Never ever buy skinny wilds.
