Well - how big a tank are they all going in?
All of his fish will probably eat your fish.
And no; $100 is not a good deal. Those are fish that people usually can't even give away.
The 4 Bala Sharks are the only fish that would do well with your fish, and are actually worth buying - $5 each, depending on size. (Less if they are small.)
 
What are pacu piranhas? Also as was said those fish should be given to you just for taking off your friends hands. Very common
 
I would say forget it, unless you are planning a huge tank in the 1000G + range with pacu in the mix
 
The 125 would be good for just the two Oscars, and that's about it. (And the Balas, if they are not snack size.)
Don't take offense by this; but you need to do a lot more research before even thinking about this. You can't house them, anyway.
 
People give pacu for free because they can't hause them and don't have money for decent system.
Google pacu or look this fish on Youtube. They get very huge. Sad story is almost every pacu ended in zoo aquaria. :D
But if u go MONSTER and provide for them. You can defenitly keep them for life.
Its not hard to care for them is hard to provide for them. :thumbsup:
Good luck man hope you will keep them.
You will not be disapointed :headbang2
