should get to about 20"- 24" not as big as the other giant gouramys, ,been growing these 2 out for nearly a year from 2",lost my last one was about 15" to a rtc.think i may have to keep these in a seperate big tank or grow them on real big.was never real keen on gouramys but these red fins have great character ,can easily mix with other fish

Cracker fish, going to be a monster when he grows up, you must have some food bill from all the monsters you have.

Always liked gouramys . I had dwarf one a while back and they are great to watch.
