Yeah, I remember those RTCs. Is the Oxydoras niger, TSN, and the two big silver aros still there with them? I thought there were two though, not three.
All animals exhibit variation in the final sizes. RTCs are no exception. The biggest ones I've heard of in captivity were 4' TL. The biggest ones reported in the wild reach 5'-6'. Those RTCs at "The Fish Place" reached ~3' in only 2 years time. RTC's live for up to 50 years or so. They will keep growing. My acquaintance Taksan has had a pair of RTC's in a 15,000 gal pond for 27 years. They reached 3.5'-4'.

Awesome cats, love RTCs even though they get monstrous. Great water clarity, are those the canisters that are an FX5 knockoff that are on ebay?? How are they working for ya?
I just saw you have a water cow in there. Rare and a really cool fish. I want one just have by spent the money on one.
I hear you bro. It's mesmerizing, ain't it? Good thing they don't charge for that.
lol the canister filters were 60$ with shipping off ebay pump 500gph and are completely silent. i have had no problems with mine other then the hose's being a little short for my liking ( but the again the top of the tank is almost 6 feet off the ground) well worth the money and you can buy 4-5 of them for one fx5 
. yup that is a water cow lol damn thing is funny he has eatin my finger twice know and im talking past the second knuckle. as for the tank it is a 220 and thay will not be able to stay in there much longer im doing a 50% water change a week as well as 60 to 80$ in filter pads and carbon every month or so to keep the water clean. you got to understand i do not advise this many cat's in this tank to anyone and even more so at this size it is very hard to keep the water clean and a small fortion in filter pads the ones im yousing are 48$ each. and thanks again for all the compliments im going to be messing with the tank again today i might take some more vids of it. i dident think this many people would like my tank lol
