- Ideally Cory's should be kept in no less than 20 gallons. Assuming your 15g is a standard 15 its floorspace should be 12x24 if I'm not mistaken. The same as a 20g high, if thats the case then you might be able to get away with one school of cory's.

How big do Cory cats get? I've been researching fish for my 30g aquarium. At this moment I'm planning on populating it with 15 Neon Tetras and six Spotted Corys. What I can't find is a maximum size for the adult Corys. If they get to two inches I will be pushing my one inch of fish per 12 square inches of surface area maximum. If they grow larger, I'll be way over.

How can a catfish grow so big? When born in natural habitats, by the time the fish are three to five years old, they reportedly weigh about 330 to 440 pounds (150 to 200 kilograms) [source: Mattson].

Although full-grown adult Mekong giant catfish lack dentition and barbels (teeth and whiskers), not so with the fry.

Car-Size Stingray May Be Worldâs Largest Freshwater Fish Hogan keeps track of freshwater fish size records through his Megafish Project, which studies the world’s biggest freshwater fish, and says the previous size record for a freshwater fish was an estimated 693 pounds (314 kilograms), for a Mekong giant catfish. The largest freshwater ray he has measured was about 400 pounds (180 kilograms). Unconfirmed reports have suggested sizes for the rays as big as 1,100 to 1,300 pounds (500 to 600 kilograms). The Guinness Book of World Records lists the Mekong giant catfish, which also lives in Thailand, as the “world’s largest freshwater fish,” weighing up to 660 pounds (300 kilograms). The 2015 edition of the book breaks out the largest saltwater ray as a separate category from bony fish, even though rays are technically a type of fish.
