Today it's a good 3.5", if not longer. I personally consider them rather fast growers. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ There is water at the bottom of the ocean

They are fast growers, but they do get somewhat large, if you count the dorsal and anal fins. I do know that angelfish are pretty much fully-grown after two years or so, but that will always differ by fish. And when he gets to Heaven, to Saint Peter he will tell: "One more Marine reporting, Sir! I've served my time in Hell."
