Nice tank. Yes, your Boesemani will get that size. Yours are still young but are starting to get their colors. Mine took about a year or so to get full sized. They're not real fast growers.
Im thinking about getting 2 boesmani rainbows to finish off my tank! Do you think it would be a good move to get these fish? My aquarium is on LFCWALSH22 then click on my aquarium.
No, unfortunately 18 gallons is much too small for Boesemani. They are very active and need lots of swimming space. I wouldn't put them in anything smaller than a 4 foot tank.
They've colored up a lot since I've had them. When I first got them they were just starting to color up. Juveniles are actually kinda drab looking but as they get older they really get beautiful. Feeding them a varied diet and regular water changes also helps.
hey bro check out mine! will they get that size?

Great Vid!
What mark would you give the Boesemani Rainbows out of 10?
LFCWalsh22 3 years ago
They are one of my favorite fish. I would give them a 10. They're very active and fun to watch but they behave themselves with the other fish.

Nice tank...I love boesemani. I don't know if that's spawning or just agressive behavior.
