I know that the aru type animals tend to be on the "bigger" side with some in excess of six feet. Yet, animals like this are not too common. The average size of a chondro is really no more than 3.5 to 5.5 feet long. Females tend to have a larger girth especially in preparation for breeding. If your new to chondros I would suggest you pick up a copy of The More Complete Chondro by Greg Maxwell. You will find all the answers you seek in this book.

The parents of my one Aru were large at over 5 ft. each, however the offspring don't appear to be larger than normal. My girl is almost 3 years old and no larger than any of the others. I've seen some large biaks too. There's no telling what size they'll be unless you buy an adult.
