10 gallons? Maybe for like the first month.

They are very skittish-that is what turns me off to these fish.

I've had one for the last 4 months... he hasn't really grown much, and he's a kind of picky eatter... but I think I just got an odd one.
Leave it to me to find the special ones... haha

Looks like Pangasius pangasius aka pangasius shark Very nice specimen. What size is he. I have two in with my two id sharks Pangasius hypothalamus.

I'd suggest no less than 300-500 gals honestly depending on the individual fish. They need large amounts of space, and you may find you eventually need a larger tank after that.

Mine are growing super slow. I've had them for over a year now and they are pushing 8-9". I got them around... 2" They eat anything and everything, everyday and I've done nothing different with them then I have my other fish. These are the only ones that seem like they are not growing for me.

No its actually pangasius hypothalamus (iridescent shark). I picked her up at 1.5" 2 years ago and now she is a chunky 26".

Wow! I've kept IDs for quite some time now and have never seen them grow quite that large, quite that fast. I was thinking it wasn't a [SIZE=-1]hypophthalmus as well.
