	Update: Ancistrus sp.; Field: Potential Size
T'Ark'An'Ni Ak'Kan Enthusiast Posts: 219 Kudos: 119 Votes: 34 Registered: 26-Dec-2002	My males have already reached, and are continuing growing from, 16cm and the females are holding steady at an average of 14cm. This could just be due to a variance in teh exact species, but I just thought it good to highlight this.

A fish that is 12cm standard length might be 16cm total length. How were you measuring yours? I'm not your neighbor, you Bakersfield trash.
