Albino pacu school? Doable?

[wednesday13]

I have a solo 8-10"er in a mixed community of barbs,geo,flagtail...ive had 2 6"ers together in the past with some fighting and the lfs just ordered me in some more ...got a hell of a deal for the store mininum order on 6 smallies around 1.5-2". ?1. Will they all be fine together in a "school" or should they be seperated? I have accomaditions for either situation up to an individual tank for them all. ?2. Could i just throw them in with my big guy 8" He lives with many schools of tiny fish and eats only vegi foods. He shows no agression to anyone even tho he could eat them all. But do u think he would be agro towards his own kind. Never been much of a pacu keeper any opinions are appreciated.

Check me if I'm wrong but last time I checked pacu mom is making a several thousand gallon tank for 2 pacus. Unless albino pacu get smaller, then I don't think its logistically possible.

Thanks for the back up latinofishlover...much appreciated....and for the other guy im building a 3,200 and currently have 26 other tanks running ill list off a few for u..... 1700,650,500,450,300,245,230,197,180,125,125,90's and so on so i think all 6 will be in much better care in my hands then if i let any go to someone else in my area with a 20 gal. And then they end up back at the lfs in a few months. Thats y i paid for all 6 today and got one hell of a deal. I only asked for 3 but my lfs had to minum order 6 so ill roll with it...and agreed i cleared a tank for the 6 today to give them a good chance to catch up with my 8"er. I just hope the 6 get along. If not ill have one in each tank round the house lol... well aware of their size nothing like a school of ghost white trash can lids floating around. I can only hope they all reach 50-80lbs.

Psssshhhh....give me a break peoples...these are mere silverdollars to me. Ill post pics tommorow evening when i pick them up. Read one of the threads in my sig theres plenty of pics to show my "proof" of caring for large fish. I already care for dozens of fish in the 24-36" range on a daily basis very responsibly. There all spolied rotten and in tanks that can hold them for "life". I deem my 1700 pool too small and built something larger already, whats the problem? Flame on someone with a real problem.
