Hemisorubim platyrhynchos

Anyone have any experience with this shovelnose?? Research I did varies on adult size and attitude/aggressivness.

never kept one, but I have seen them kept by others.

they're not suppose to get very big, probably less than 2 ft.

I would suppose they're just like other south american pims in terms of attitude and aggressiveness. peaceful but definitely a predator.

Most info I read says between 18-22", although one site said 5FT!!!!
