    Yup, 3 months. But that's because my setup is predominantly a fish setup as opposed to a planted tank setup. I think if you keep them in a planted tank and feed them sparsely to avoid algae and planaria, then they will grow much slower.

    wow thats quick, my biggest concern is how long before they will be able to eat with the rest of the fish in my tank ie blood worms and small ganules...

    The size of the tank will also affect their growth rate.
    Bigger tank, Faster growth rate.
    Small tank tends to induce stunt growth.
