Biggest fish I've had? Probably the 2ft long koi I rescued and tried to treat, I also kept a 14-16 inch bullhead catfish and at the moment my largest pet fish is 9-10 inch green sunfish (who is a little spoiled pig). Getting a couple largemouth bass soon so they will be the biggest at some point
Longest I kept a single fish was probably when I was younger I kept a bluegill for probably 3-4 years in a small tank feeding him bugs and pellets, he went to my friends when we moved and was later released into a pond.. Hopefully he is still alive and thriving somewhere

my biggest fish so far is my gibbicep at around 15inch ish guestimate, however i do have two channa which will max around 183 cm / 48+inches......however theres a reason i have these, they WILL NOT go to anyone so until i find there suitble home i will keep them here,
my longest living fish i have is 7-8years and is a hoplo catfish is still here now

My biggest fish is my common plecs, one is 16" (when last measured)
The longest time I had a fish was a koi, I had him 10 years before he was stolen with others from the pond.

the biggest fish i have is my koi. it has probably just gone past 20 inch. Last time i measured it, it was 18 1/2 inch and it was early May time. She is about 6 years old now

Longest ive had a single fish for ive had would be the first koi i bought 8 years ago.

 

[peter22UK]

i have a koi thats about 70-80cm

oh and some of my koi are over 20 years old...which is still very young for a koi

Never had large fish lol,

Largest and longest Was my fairground fish nelson that i won aged 7, he lived in a 21 litre plastic tank with no filter for 4 years,
made me feel awful to say that now that i know how awful it must have been for him

Got a 3 1/2 ft catfish, 1 1/2 ft black shark and fully grown pacu at work though, doubt they'll ever sell

Well I have young blue acara once they grow they will be my largest but right now my keyhole is a wee bit bigger but not for long only 4". My first betta is my longest lived fish 5 years old. But I have a few plecos I think will out live that.

Biggest is my pearsei which is around 15", and about 3 inches thick-fat old thing.

 

[simonas]

I have a 20 inch fire eel who is the biggest fish I have ever had

The oldest fish I have now is my Bichir which I have had 3 yrs or so but I once had a clown lach for about 7 yrs till a piece of slate fell and crushed him, to say I was gutted was an udersatemet

6 inch comet goldfish (not technically mine but I looked after it, family pets ehh!).

At the moment my Betta at about 3.5cm, he's only a baby really so still lots of growing to go though he'll never be as big as some of the others I really like the smaller fish species anyway, where I work they have lots of marine tanks and some of the residents are monsters around 1-2 feet.

 

[shelaghfishface]

mine has to be Bo, hes about 11/12 inches ( hes in my sig ) big heavy lump he is,scares the life out of me splashing about! but love him to bits
