you can find a lot of stuff on google.

I've caught and eaten 10 - 12 inch ones top of australia

very nice too

i searched on google but i got heaps of different results like 15cm , 20cm, 25cm and 30+cm. so i didnt know what ones to trust.

I had the same results, but the majority of the ten or so sites I looked at briefly seemed to favour the 10 to 12 inch range. 15cm was the smallest example and was only on one site, 40cm was the largest but was on a wildlife site rather than an aquarium site and it is mentioned in a few places that they rarely grow to that size in aquaria.

What size tank would be alright for them?

are you thinking of getting the 2 that john has

they look cool i want to see one spit

yea.does he have 2? I thought there was only one.

yup he has 2 or he did i didnt look last time i went in..... yesterday :oops:

I've been told that if you turn the room lights off at night and hold a lit cigarette over the tank, they'll spit it out. Great party trick if it's true. :lol:
