Ive read over 10 websites telling me diffrent sizes that pictus cats reach and how big of tanks they need!
Can someone tell me how big they get?
 
they can get to 6" but in aquarium 4" is more common. I think you could keep them in a 25gallon but you need open spaces for them to swim in so barely any decor in that size.
 
I think u need a group of three so i wouldnt keep them in anything less than a 40
 
In the wild they can reach 12" but 5-6" is the norm in the home aquarium...I've got 5 that range from 3" to 5". HIH
 
I have 3 in my 57G tank. They were all about 2.5" when i bought them, now they are all 3.5 - 4.5". I havent seen them bigger than 5-6" in an aquarium or LFS.
