as much of a gentle giant he is... his teeth still scares me....



I been keeping a black pacu in my tank for a couple of weeks now...
do pacu's ever get full ? i usually feed my bbsd's , pacu, frt, pellets before i feed my aro his SW's but no matter how much i feed the pacu... it seems like he still wants more... and steals my aro's sw.. errrr....

I have never seen one get "full" LOL I have seen them weigh 10 pounds and get that big in a 55 gallon however..... Ive kept them a long while back and are very gentel fish but get HUGE fast and make ALOT of waste....
Get them on the trout chow pellets..... I used to pour it almost right into thier mouths just to get the shrimp to the other fish :)

Yeah I've personally never owned one but also hear that they never get full and get huge. I believe a full grown pacu needs a 300gal+ tank
