When does the Dussumieri change color?

[DamienHanna]

I'm adding one of these guys soon and was curious as to when they take on the adult coloration. Since this guy gets to be very large in the wild I was wondering at what size they are considered "adult". Most of the dealers consider 4-5" a large one but they still have the juvenile colors.

Would appreciate any info from Dussumieri owners on when/what size they start to change color...

I've got one that's changing colors right now. I'd say it's about 4-5 inches. It kinda takes a while for them to change completly I think. Just make sure to feed a lot of good frozen so the color morph comes out good. That's only my theory, but we'll see what others have to say.
