Great looking fish, I plan to get some "small type pacus" (silver dollars) later the red hooks and black bars get to about one foot only but will go with my other fish a little better.

One person mentioned your bioload is high, is that true to some extent?, What length is he, and height, and what size aquarium do you have him in? Not only is the fish healthy looking but the pics except one are clear.

Thanks-It's no the case-Water params are tested twice weekly-

My pacu is roughly 22 to 24 inches now and is housed in a 500 gal-6 foot by 4 foot by 3 foot tank.....

I must confess, I usually hate pacus, but that is one nice looking fish. Great body shape, face, and colouration.

I take great pride in owning this beauty.....
Usual the only thing someone has bad to say about it is that it is ugly-But to each their own,I guess....

I *HATE* Pacu, but that is one good looking monster you have there. Also digging on the channel cat.

Thanks-One of the finer guys around...
Channel cat might be up for adoption before much longer
