GROWTH

[jhamil]

DO ALL STRAINS SHARE THE SAME GROWTH RATE OR IS IT RELATED WITH EATING HABBITS? MY YELLOW DIAMOND AND MY COBALT BLUE DON'T SEEM TO BE GROWING AT THE SAME RATE. BUT THEY ARE AS AGGRESIVE AS THE REST WHEN IT COMES TO EATING :confused: THANK YOU.

IMO different strains grow at different rates. For some, not all, Albinos and golden based fish will tend to grow slower. But in the end, the fish still end up growing out, just takes a little longer.

Is your yellow growing slower than the cobalt? Or are both your yellow and cobalt growing slow?

Not only dependent on strain or type but in a group of fish, there will be those that are superior in growth and development.

THE YELLOW AND THE COBALT ARE THE SLOWER GROWERS

Growth will vary even among siblings from the same hatch, who've lived together in the same tank their whole lives. Add a lot of other variables, the particular strains being only one, to have even more variation.
