Hi there
first i have a few questions:

1) who has kept these
2) how big in aquaria

i have two i just purchased, one is 80 cms long, the other is 50to60 cms long. they are old, at least 10 years old. healthy, active, fat.

i wanna know, will these get much bigger, at this age. i know some pangasius get HUGE HUGE HUGE. but these are old and i think they wont get much larger.. but correct me if im wrong.

i want all info on keeping these. my tank is 8 footx80cms front to back and 65 high. its 1200 litres. filtration wont be a problem, guaranteed. its more care ofr the fish, doesnt say much around google.
some say this fish gets huge too huge, but this is a healthy happy fish, and its 80 cms after years and years.
eprhaps this species wont get too huge,

(note, pangasius sutchi is what they said it was, it could be a slightly different pangasius species)

so i wanna hear from people who have on
 
They wont grow much more they could in a large aquarium get 90 to 100 cm TOPS.
