Thanks. I did read that yesterday - about 3 or four different kinds sold as commons - with a fast difference in adult size (12-inches to 22-inches). And mine was sold to me for a 10-gallon tank. If I hadn't started doing research and found a couple of good forums to join, I would have never known and probably stunted his growth in that 10-gallon. Though now I have to get something even bigger if I want to keep him.
I am actually thinking of having my husband put in a huge tank when we renovated the downstairs of the house. Yeah, I think I am already addicted! They are just so calming and peaceful to watch.
