I got the coolest Convict ever. He is pink and has one of those nots on the top of his head, like no other convict I have seen. In store he was big. Fighting off a green severum and some other fish. Anywho went I get him home and put him in the tank. I notice how small he really is compared to my guys. He is so small I am thinking about putting in my Molly tank lol. Anywho what is going on here .

Is that just becuase the point of references change, since they are in a small tank they would look much bigger ? Or is it just a different type of glass/ acrylic used that makes them look bigger at the store.
 
Probably your change in comparison and tank size. Compared to the other fish inside your tank he probably looks small.
