kokopou

[johnny walker]

hi i have two juvinille kokopous in one of my tanks and have had them for about three months and they have barley started growing how long does it take for them to become fully grown?

[supasi]

What type do you have??

Also:

How big are they now?

And what are you feeding them?

Tank maintenance will also have an effect on growth. Kokopu need to eat LOTS, so more waterchanges required to keep the water healthy.

[preacher]

For another question... How bigs the tank? I hope its BIG

they are tiny 5-6cm long and i am unsure what type they are yet the tank is 90cm long and 45 wide and 45 tall when they get bigger i will move them

i do 50% water changes weekly and they are on a mixed menu of ox heart mealworms bloodworms and boatmen from the pond

Well, that sounds good then They should grow fast. Speed may depend somewhat on species.

The temperature might be slowing growth a bit, I found my little ones slowed over winter. DON'T warm the tank or anything, just let nature take it's course, they are interesting at all stages.

At 5-6cm they can be rather tricky to identify, but if you can get some decent photos I may be able to give a good guess
