Hi,
How long does it take MOnos to reach its full size in captivity? And how
long can they be kept in fresh water before changing into brackish or
sal****er?
Thanks

I did a moderated chat on Mono argenteus, text here:

The site below has a lot of good info.

Space is an issue with raising Monos. I currently have a dozen of them
in a 4ft. grow-out tank. They will move to a 5ft tank, and hopefully
I'll be able to upgrade them again later. Less of an issue is filtration
as they are heavy carnivores (but adding more filters is easier than
making your tank longer ;~). hth
