i thought that barracuda grow rather slow.... so if you had a sorta big enough tank couldn't you keep one for a while... then just eat em?
i hear they are rather tasty but should be eaten (at least in the wild) cause of mercury

You do NOT have space.

You want to put a 4' fish in an 8' tank. Not going to work. For life, think on the order of 20-30x bigger. They are VERY fast swimmers, and need TONS of room. Also, 6 groupers in a 300 gallon tank will likely be much too small when full grown. Which species of grouper do you have?
