I was in LFS last night and a guy came in with the biggest pleco i have ever seen it was in a 3ft cooler and was almost touching both sides. He had it in a 55 :nilly: and wanted to get rid of it because he would splash water on people when they walked by. The employee was going to be putting it in a 200 gallon pond i tried getting it for my pool :headbang2 but she didnt want to give it up. I have seen big one online but never in person. Any ways i want to see the biggest ones people have or have seen. Please do not post useless you have a image attach to back it up.:popcorn:

i don't have the pic of it, but oddball has a 3 footer of some speices.
 
first one i caught with a cast net.
didnt think he would like to ride 3hrs in that bucket so i let it go :screwy:

second one
another hole i go to has a ton like this.
i just used a scoop net to land him.
he was pissed "standing like a pit bull" :D
i would guess over a foot.

3rd pic
guy on mfk had to lighten the pic to see it.
it was huge 3 to 4 feet i would guess.
i seen a few this size where i was fishing that day.
tried to scoop net it but it seen me coming a mile away. :grinno:

Liz, what size tank is that?

I want to know what I need to have in order to get my 11 and 12 inch commons to look that comfortable in a tank (they're in a 125 now and grumpy about it). Heck, even the Arowana looks comfortable...is that a 300 or is it bigger?

Very nice BTW.
 
nice name for your plec "the titaninc"
