Proof that fish do not grow only to the size of their tank

I wonder who that pleco killed to get life in prison.

There no proof it grew to that size in that tank.

poor thing..... some people have no respect!

Judging by the thickness of the glass, the snails on the opposite end glass and the corner seam in the background I would say that is a ten gallon tank. Needless to say this proves nothing because that pleco is not ten gallons

Ding Ding Ding! We have a winner - my first though as well. Maybe there is something on there that says it has been in there for life - but I would doubt it.

Fish will not really stop growing unless they have a "max size" and reach it - even so - most fish will grow to the point where they are awkwardly large in their inclosure and then just grow very slowly.

That just makes me so sad......

Sad. This fish is in a jail cell suffering to death.

that water looks really dirty, and the snails are another proof that the owner does not take good care of the tank properly.

that is huge O.O
