No i did not. Where did you get that? You must have not read any of this topic. When did they start selling 12" pacus at wal mart?
I have two Red belly Pacu and one of them has that dark/black lower and silver top, and he's 10 inches.
I don't find that particularly attractive in a fish, now my larger pacu, Bitey he's almost a show fish, uniform silver body with deep red belly, dark black edge of tail.

Whatever it is it is definately not a black.
I owned two blacks 15 or so years ago and from being an inch or two long they look completely different ,pointy head and slightly upturned mouth.
I picked mine out of a group of small imported reds though the shop tried to tell me it was just a sex difference ! I insisted on them or non.
I think they cost me about £ 3.50 at the time cheap even then.
Incidently they were black even at two inches.

Not true. Ive had RBs turn all black at 5''.landonc;234541; said:He looks exactly the same as those, the orange color is juvenile state as hes under one year of age. Notice the black lower coloration on this guy as well
RB Pacus this size would still be in full red coloration usually up until about 15 inches or so. This guy was black since 8 inches.
