I have a 65 gallon (US) tank, and was wondering if I have room for one more pictus. I currently have 2. I also have 6 tiger barbs, 5 corydoras, 1 common pl*co, and some tetras. Right now the pl*co is VERY small, as are the corys and the 2 pictus are maybe 2.5-3 inches? I am worried about adult size and my inch/gallon. I do plan on getting a bigger tank for the cats / pl*c once the pl*c gets to big for this tank, but am honestly not too sure how fast they all grow, and am not looking to getting another tank for maybe a year or so. I have been reading the pics need 3 or more, though at the moment my 2 seem pretty content.
Thanks
Jade

I think your tank can stock another Pim for the time being. I'm quite convinced 3 of them will be even more content and so will you

Btw: pick one that has the same size as the ones you already have.

Thank you for the welcome, I was very happy to find this site, so informative, and people that love catfishes! I have to go to the LFS and get some more hiding spaces (my corys are trying to sleep w/ Pic, and he is NOT happy about it, even though I got them the log w/ the anubias on it, they have other ideas) . I will take a look at their pictus and get one soon. Thanks
