Who has one? Can anyone give me pics? I've seen a few in person, two 4 inchers in an LFS, and a 1 foot one in a public aquarium. I want to see the full size one.
 
Lookup necrocanis and basslover34
I know others have fullsized RTC, but can't remember who off the top of my head.

Thanks Blu, but mine isn't that big yet... just over 2' only :( give him another year and I'll be singing another story though :D
Well its still larger than a lot of em floating around here... certainly larger than my wee lil 7"er
AND you have those pics of full grown ones in the ...zoo??? Somewhere...
 
Mines ... not quite necro's or TLknDM's (i think he has the biggest RTC) caliber hehehhe but seems to be bigger than basslover's :naughty: Hmmm close to 70-80cm (tile length is 40cm)

I don't think anyone has a "full" sized RTC as in the sense max potential in the wild, but who knows perhaps later.

i have seen an absolutely MASSIVE RTCs in Siam Paragon's amazon section of public aquarium in Bangkok (but then again they had an even bigger Paima sooo you get the scale of the enclosure)

Thinking about getting one?? If you can house them and afford to feed them then they are quite rewarding actually.

PS: got to handfeed mine for the first time last Sunday ... interesting experience. they are not completely teethless, hmmm got that sharp sandpaper feel to their mouth

k not to derail but do the tsn/rtc hybrids get about the same size? and what would everyone agree is minimum tank size versus a pond?
