um I had a 23" pleco with my rtc 3 years ago. bought him at about 15". There's about a 20" at my lfs I got my eye on for my new indoor pond. I saw one that had to be well over 30" at a japanese resturant in my hometown. If I remember next time I go home, if it is still alive I will photograph it with someone next to it. You guys might be waiting a couple of months on that one though. lol.
