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

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.
