How fast does Schooling Bannerfish (Heniochus diphreutes) grow?

Hi guys,

I have 120 gal tank. LiveAquaria shows Schooling Bannerfish (Heniochus diphreutes) can grow up to 8.5". How fast does it reach that size?


Thanks

Depends on feeding.

Yep. This will hold true for all fish that get large if properly maintained. I had a Emperor angel go from 3/4" to 7.5" in a year and a half. Same thing with a orange shoulder tang, except the orange shoulder was closer to 9"
