Yup, you're right about that!
His dad was a pretty hefty cray too---and I've seen pics of him from the guy who sent me Goliath. He is currently still raising some of Goliath's siblings, and I plan on implementing Goliath's 'growth genes' in a breeding program I recently decided to embark upon with a couple of other collaborators. Should be some pretty cool stuff in store for the future...
Gerald, a 2.5 gal. hex could work, but it wouldn't be ideal---especially considering Goliath's offspring will get pretty big rather quickly (if they take after their father at all). These smaller hex tanks just hardly have any footprint to them. At full-grown, the cray would be pretty much confined to running around in circles. My recommendation would have to be for a 5 gal. standard footprint---10 gal.+ being much better.
