:I would think an animal eatting meat would grow faster how is it that they grow faster on plant matter?

I'm with you. I have never seen any of my snappers eat plant matter. I have mostly given them fish, worms, and reptomin when they are young and the growth was pretty phenomenal. I'm not saying they don't eat it, but they can sure get by without it.
