12-14cm? WOW... yours *are* much bigger than mine.

Again, I'd say the largest of the four is about 2" (5cm) give or take... So they've got some growing to do.

I could be recalling incorrectly, but I thought Burgess cited then at 4-6cm, that's why I *presumed* they were full grown... I must be recalling incorrectly, or when I did the CM-to-Inches conversion I screwed it up?

Well then, I've got juveniles, for sure. At 12-14cm, there's no way they'd fit in a 12 gallon nanocube at full size...

Given their less than active behavior and that they aren't big swimmers/movers, what would be the smallest tank you think a pair would be doable in? 50 gallons?

As pets, sadly, it sounds like these fish are problematic as they grow larger!
