Neither the adonis nor the hystrix even begin to touch the largest. The largest would be a panaque, commonly known as LDA65, or titanic pleco. Oddball use to have one, and I hope he throws his pic up of it.

Full grown acanthicus are far longer and about as wide as a large panaque. I would say that they average out to having similar weights.
