TOP 10 BIGGEST FRESHWATER FISH IN THE WORLD

TOP 10 LIST OF THE BIGGEST BADDEST FRESHWATER FISH ON THE PLANET. ALL FISH LISTED ARE EITHER WORLD RECORDS OR HAVE BEEN ACCURATELY CALCULATED. True River Monsters

MANY OF THESE SPECIES CAN GET LARGER THEN THE RECORDS INDICATE BUT WITH LIMITED DATA, MY INTENT IS NOT TO LIST FICTITIOUS REPORTS. ALL LINKS ARE INCLUDED IN THE REST OF THIS DESCRIPTION. LARGEST FISH IN THE WORLD RECORDED ACCOUNTS.

THESE ARE ALL TRUE FRESHWATER FISH. NONE OF THESE MONSTER FISH HAVE TO LIVE OR SPEND ANYTIME IN BRACKISH OR MARINE ENVIRONMENTS. THEY ALL LIVE AND REPRODUCE IN PURE FRESHWATER EVEN THOUGH SOME CAN TOLERANT BRACKISH WATER. THIS LIST DOESN'T INCLUDE BELUGA STURGEONS, WHITE STURGEONS OR BULL SHARKS FOR EXAMPLE.

MANY OF THESE HUGE FISH AREN'T AGGRESSIVE TOWARDS HUMANS BUT SOME OF THE CATFISH HAVE BEEN LABELLED AS MAN EATERS BY THE NATIVES IN THEIR AREAS.
