BTA Growth

[keithqueef]

just curious ive had my BTA for well over a year and it doesnt seem any bigger.

my water quality is on point. the thing sits directly under 175w mh. always looking good.

is there such thing as slow growing bta.
the only thing i can think of is maybe i feed it to much. i dunno. i feed every 3 days target feed mysis or silverside bits. any input would be great.

How big is it?? I feed mine a whole silverside once every week. I can't stop them from growing.

I feed mine nothing and it grows like crazy. It gets bits of mysis from feeding fish I suppose but no direct feedings.
