I heard of this ... thank goodness mine never got that way.. yes if they are raised with small fish and they grow bigger and are hungary i quess it is a natural thing that they would help them selves.. mine were never given any thing except veggies and maybe this helps too.. My RD was with them for awhile and he started nipping at the pacus even though he was a tiny little guy compared to them.. So RD's definitly have the bully personality even with fish bigger then themselves.. they don't call them Red Devils for nothing:grinno:

how big is their tank? Mine went from about 2" to about 11" in about 5 months..I got rid of them then lol...

It happens to pacu quite often since people are not told by the LFS when they buy them that they will grow into giants FAST! Their tank is a 220gal. and we could still go bigger.. :D
