I have two Festivums, I have been told many different sizes on them i was wondering what size they can accualy get. :/
 
Heres a good page on them :)

A little smaller than what I first said, but I could have sworn I have seen them bigger than that :S

I'd be surprised if you could get one to 6''... I've got one that's about 5'' and I don't see it getting much bigger.

I've seen some in giant tanks at the local aquarium, and they were around 5''. They get very thick as they age.. a lot like severums.
 
One thing I've noticed though is that they get very aggressive towards each other as they grow..

I bought 3 when they were around 2''... I've had to separate the one that grew the fastest from the other 2 as it was attacking them... since I've done that, the 2 remaining ones together wont stop fighting with each other.. so I'm going to have to separate them also..

They were fine for quite awhile.. but all of a sudden they went gangster on each other.. was pretty unexpected!
