since ill have plenty of pumpkins after halloween that are still good, couldent they be cut up for my goldfish and pacu to eat?? seems like it may be good as one more thing to add to their diet for a week or two

i dont see why not, as its just a fruit, and humans eat them quite often. but wasent sure if there was anything that may not be good for a fish.
 
You must know that Pacu eat friut in the wild so the pumkin should be fine as long as they will eat it.
 
it's fine. BTW, if you have a pleco, he will go crazy!
 
i figured as much that it would be good, but can never be too sure.

plus i wanted to post it incase anyone else may not have thought of giving pumpkin to their fish. we all have them at this time of year, so why not spoil the fish with something new :)
 
Yeah, it will be fine! My silverdollar eats pumpkin!
