Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Hello
Hello,
Yes, that is quite normal. They do grow very fast at that age. On average, they will grow 1/2 inch, sometimes more, per week.
I would guess that he is probably roughly 6 months old, at 12 inches. Give or take 1 month either way. It is difficult to tell when you get them from a petstore, as they don't always know the true age, either.
Maybe you could post a pic so we could have a look at him.

Hello
Hello,
Well, for a german giant, I would definitely go with a minimum of a 90 gallon tank. Really, preferably a 120 gallon or larger.
A good rule is they need at least 1 1/2 times their length at least, in the width so they can turn around easily without stressing their spines. They need at least 2-3 times their length for the length of their tank. A common size is a 4x2x2 or a 5x2x2 is a good size.
Yes, you are right, they need length more than they need height. A breeder tank is better than the conventional tank.
