Depends on the species of SH. I kept temperate water H. whitei. Adults grew only to about 4" long. The fry were very large and ate artemia right away.

I also got a few H. reidi (I think) fry from BA's when I was raising my H. whitei. Amazing how tiny the reidi fry were compared to the H. whitei fry. All I had on hand to feed the reidi fry were artemia which were much too big for the fry. Unfortunately, they did not survive past three days
