I just wonder where your RTCs and other huge fishes go when they outgrow your biggest tank?

For myself i can say it would be really hard to give away beautiful fish i took care of for years..not to mention kill - thats out of option..

I give them back to the place where I bought them from. They have a huge tank where they put fish for just watching.

I was talking to a zoo keeper, he says he gets calls weekly to take red tail cats and pacu he can't take.
My rule is, if in the end, I can't bring myself to eat it, I don't get it.
