Simple, just get a pond heater.
 
THE FOLLOWING TEXT MAY BE AN INCITEMENT FOR FLAMING. PLEASE DON'T FLAME ME.

Well, I've had 2 ID sharks in a 60 gallon tank for about 7-8 years (estimate). The bigger one has reached a size of about 18 inches (stunted, I know) whilst the smaller one may be less than a foot (HORRIBLY STUNTED, I know). When I got them, I was young. I didn't know any better.

Now, seeing that I'll be moving to a new house soon and my dad has a good amount of space in the back of his office, I'll probably negotiate having a pond made for them.

Just wanted to share a bit of info. Of all the fish I've seen, I honestly feel that Pangasius are the ones that end up stunted the most.
 
This is my baby,a little over two feet in a 450 gallon,soon he is going to a 1500 gallon with a few three foot id's.

It really is a nice-looking fish. He seems deeper bodied than mine, but he's also about 4" longer. Is the 1500 gallon yours, or are you re-homing him?
 
You people and ur big cats. Mine are prob 2 years old and the biggest is 7", other maybe 5". Iv never seen such wussy catfish. Sometimes they make me want to put them in a 20gal and stuff them full.
