Pots get to be 12 inches long, the minimum recommended tank for pots is 55 gallons. They truly are large horses. You'd be better off with some breviceps if you can find them.

I'm sure they do, but I don't know any smaller than rotifers. That's what we were feeding them. We've been successful at raising clownfish, but no luck with the jawfish.

We never could keep them alive past a few days and since then our jawfish has passed away.

I'd like to try again and that's why I was asking.
