    Whenever I’m in the process of getting a new species I’ve never kept before. My first action is ALWAYS to come here to find your husbandry notes and rehousing videos. Your information is clear, easy to follow and always accurate and it’s a godsend to keepers both new and seasoned, we appreciate it Tom!

      Although they grow very quickly at first, that growth seems to slow down once they hit the 5" mark or so. Considering that they can hit 8", that still leaves a lot of time for a female to continue to grow. I would guess that females could hit 15 years or more.
