I got this GREAT idea, about calming fish...

[LivingForTheFuture]

So you know how fish sometimes get anxious or to exited and the swim back and forth climbing the side of your aquarium, and to solve the issue or make more relaxing to the fish is to put that outdoor lawn or fake lawn into your aquarium and cut out sheets and then use a hole punch and zip ties and suction cups from home depot. Home depot sells suction cups with hooks and zip ties 8 inch preferably. To make the holes two at the top of the sheet of fake lawn and just stick to aquarium. Is this a good project and do you think it will work, cause my pacu fish does anxiousness? what do you think give me your feedback.

Just hope material is not toxic, or pacu doesn't try to eat it

Lots of people do "moss walls" which is what you are saying, but real. I wouldn't be surprised if that fake lawn stuff had fungicides or something that would kill your fish.

A PACU is a ripping, shredding, glass slamming Neanderthal! Good luck now and as he becomes the size of a city sewer cap.

no experience with pacus, I've never had the room, but most of my fish have been happier with cover from above as opposed to cover that blocks their view of approaching whatevers.

Whatever you use good luck. I haven't seen one that wasn't a skittish mess.

What makes you think AstroTurf would be calming to fish. You think fish know what grass is? Try it tell us if it worked for you.
