It's a lot more clear if you type the whole name....

I mean, typing the rest of your question used as many letters and more to finish "opimelodus".

otrherwise we might think you are talking about Pseudoplatystoma, Pseudostegophilus, Pseudodoras, Pseudocetopsis etc
:roll: :wink:

not much, but then; I wouldn't dare to combine them anyway.

not because of agression.
but because of their feeding habits......in captivity they can and do swallow fish -including members of their own species!- up to at least half or maybe even 2/3 of their own size.....

definitely a "one fish per tank" fish IMO.
or in a huge tank with Stingrays, adult Merodontotus, Tigershovelnoses etc.
