    Hey Everyone,

    Stupid question-- If you were getting a fish from a website such as LiveAquaria and they said the fish was 5 inches would that measurement be from mouth to the tip of the tail or from mouth to the base of the body? (so not including the tail fin)

    With all my fish that I have ordered from DiversDen, it has included the tail. So I would assume that it is the same for liveaquaria then.
