You can not grow fish to a tank. fish do not grow to the size of there tanks. if the tank is way to small they can die because there organs will keep growing but there skin will not grow. you could only have one in a 40 gallon tank. Good luck!!!!

-- Most fish have indeterminate growth and that can be impacted by aquarium size, available food sources and other environmental variables. Keeping fish in an aquarium that is not suited for their size can stunt the growth of a fish. It can also overly stress a fish resulting in sickness and even death. As a general rule go by surface area to determine tank capacity. One inch of fish for each twelve square inches of surface area.

How does a goldfish grow as a size of a foot when in seawater and still the same size when in a bowl?

Goldfish release growth-inhibiting hormones into the water they live in: the more goldfish in a smaller space, the less likely they are to grow. For instance, if I have a common goldfish in a 5 gallon tank, it will grow to about the same size if I had 6 of the same fish in a 30 gallon tank. But leave that fish alone in a 30 gallon tank, and it will grow larger. This is why pond goldfish grow bigger. But goldfish won't grow at all in seawater; they aren't saltwater fish.
