    He has not eaten yet. Although, I've only had him a few hours. He is currently in a 29 gal qt tank. He'll be going in my 72 gal soon. Right now he's probably around 3 inches.

    I don't think he will? My fish are all bigger than him which should help. I love that they stay small! That's why I wanted that type. : )
