large gsp at LFS

Post by Arny »

Hey I've just seen a large GSP at my LFS. I think he's almost fully grown as he looks about 4 1/2 to 5 inches. He doesn't look to healthy and is in Brakish water. I was wondering if I could buy him and aclimatise him to go in my fully Marine tank

Full grown is 6" without tail.

Hey PP

Do you think he's a normal GSP that's nearly fully grown or is he a Large GSP?

You definitely can acclimate him to marine, so if he's compatible with your tank, go for it!
"I will give you a talisman. Whenever you are in doubt, or when the self becomes too much with you, apply the following test. Recall the face of the poorest and the weakest man whom you may have seen, and ask yourself, if the step you contemplate is going to be of any use to him or her. Will she gain anything by it? Will it restore her to a control over her own life and destiny? In other words, will it lead to freedom for the hungry and spiritually starving millions? Then you will find your doubts and your self melt away."

Found among the papers of Mohatma Gandhi
