so, this is in my South American Tetra tank... I've tried a couple times to get a big school of cardinals, as I love them... 1st try, resulted in small to medium cardinals being hunted, and eaten by the one angel in the tank... something about the color and size, the angel would just not leave them alone, and soon all were gone... the angel has not messed with other similar sized small fish, and finding jumbo cardinals has been difficult, but I added a dozen jumbo's a while back... the angel didn't seem to hunt them, being larger, but they slowly disappeared, leaving just one, that has been in this tank for close to a year now... it has continued to grow, and is now huge, and seems happy to school with the rest of tetras... I have never seen one this big... it's a touch over 2 inches long, and has a good girth... not exactly sure how much bigger it can get???
once I get another tank set up ( requires a little house fixing, before I set it up ) I'll move the angel, and just have tetras in this tank, and order another large school of cardinals
is this considered as big as they can get??? it's almost as big as the emperor types
