Thats most certainly not it! Remember its round, its 23 inches wide, and 23 inches deep. Its probally more like 30 gallons im guessing.
Radius = 11.5" lol.
([3.14 x (11.5 x 11.5)] x 23")/231=G
([3.14 x 132.25] x 23")/231=G
(415.265 x 23")/231=G
9551.095"/231=G
41.346732 gallons.
This will hold you pacu for a month or so while waiting for the pond, just make sure to keep up with water changes and filtration, and keep it covered with a weighted grill like an eggcrate diffuser or it will jump out. It won't be happy and will need partial water changes about every other day but it won't damage it self in a corner or break the tub.

Do you think I should move him to this? He would have much better turning room being 12 inches. But it seems so small. Though your right he cant hurt himself or the container. Are you sure its 41 gallons?guppy said:
