Ok I have been stupid before about a black pacu in 55g but this is out of control, If you want a predator try a hujeta gar a bichir and maybe a saber tooth barracuda (scomberoid) that can actually live in the tank for life.

Is this a serious thread?

good one!!

arapaima in a 75 is like putting you in a dog cage

I think one should do a little personal research (google) before asking to many questions related to the species on a forum. You are just opening yourself up to derogatory comments. Especially of this nature.
