Back on the forums just in time to find some fellow Plaicenps keepers! I've kept a couple over the past year and a half. One I grew from 8" to 16" and lost it in the pond move then I got another in March 08 and have it currently in my pond at roughly 24-26" (eyeballing it from above). They get longer typically then TSN species (Fasciatum or Tigrinum or Coruscans) but aren't nearly as beefy as several mentioned. At 5ft I'd bet a adult Planiceps to weigh less than 30lbs for sure whereas a 5ft Corcuscans would be closer to 80lbs. Here is a picture of an adult Planiceps and a couple older pictures of mine. I'll post some updated pictures of the big guy after I clean my pond this afternoon so hopefully in the next day or two after everything settles down. ~Trent
