I had a 3ft African Lungfish before I revamped my tank for my Elongatus Piranha. I'm not sure if he was full grown or not, I had him a lil over a year, so I would say that they do start growing pretty slow at some point. I say if you have a 100 gallon long. You'll be fine with 2. Word of Advice, don't have too much decor in there as they will make sure things get "misplaced" mine would move everything around in the tank. I hope this helps.
