decorus and nototus

I currently have one s decorus and one s notatus. until this point both have been in separate tanks but that may have to change. I need spine surgery and am trying to reduce from 15 tanks to just 5 or 6 large ones. This is my question: assuming enough hiding spaces can I keep a full grown decorus and full grown notatus in a 120 xh? (60"x18'x26"). I don't want to have to get rid of them as I have had both for 10+ years and none of the local stores are interested even though I have given a couple a lot of business in the last 10 years. ($$ that will be given to online retailers from now on, but that's a different subject)
Thanks in advance

I had a ~20+ cm SL duo of Synodontis notatus and decorus in a 5x2x2 for about two years, which by and large were absolutely fine. Having arranged to rehome the decorus with MatsP, as he already had others and they are quite social as synos go, I vaguely recall there were some minor scuffles during the final week or so, despite plenty of cover on the tank floor.

As long as you have plenty of decor they should be fine :)
