How big of a tank is this in? I read that they need a 500 gallon tank.

Probably my all time favorite fish out there but they get huge!!

They do get big. Good looking fish and active.

I've noticed that with sweet lips and snappers that their colors tend to drown out and fade as they age.

I've read that when the sweetlips mature the colors will actually reverse. It will be white body with dark spots instead or the orangie body with white spots. Fascinating really.
