whats the max size of a vittatus ang a goliath?

what fishes can u keep with a vittatus?
I have never kepthem so I don't know what they are safe with or their growth rates.
According to fishbase the sizes of the Hydrocynus tigers go from;
goliath 53.2"
vittatus 42"
brevis 34 1/2"
forskalhii 31 1/4"
somonorum 22"
tanzanie 10"

Why the smaller ones are not imported is something I do not know.

thanks for the reply guppy..

do the smaller ones have the nice tiger teeth also?
 
The brevis and the forskahlii do, I have seen only drawings of the other two but they seem to.
 
neither fish can be kept in a conventional (240g) tank, but at least vittatus stay smaller. I reckon anyone shy of having a large pond is a scumbag for trying to keep a goliath.

I've kept a 17-18" Forskalli ATF successfully in a 240 comm. tank... does that make me a scumbag??!! :D
