Was curious if there is any fish that truly grows to the size of the tank/pond that you are keeping it in. I don't plan on buying anything or anything I'm just curious because I always read online that this fish only grows to the size of the tank that you keep it in. Most are ridiculous like an oscar living in a 15 gallon, but I was wondering if any fish truly do?
 
Nope. But I did once see a pike that literally bent in the shape of a S from being kept in a 10g tank. It some how survived long enough to make it into my brother in-laws 225. But It was always bent until it died about 4-5 years later
