What is this fish? It was at the LFS in an unlabeled tank. They sold it to me for $2. Thanks in advance for any help.

Yeah, they said they did not know what it was because they had no tag for it on the tank, so the manager said just give it to me for 2 bucks. I figured it was a pacu, because I know RBP are not legal here but I thought there might be a slight chance it got there by mistake somehow. Oh well I will keep him and see how he turns out. Will a 125 be good for him/her for life? Is it possible to breed these in an aquarium?

Pacu's grow well quick i had 1 and in a month it grew from 2" to 4.5" I know they can grow up to around 20" to 30" and there growth rate is stupidly quick. A 125 gal for now would be ok but you would have to upgrade when it starts getting bigger if you have 1 then you could probably get away with a tank anywhere between 200 to 300 gal, but I'm not an expert this is just from some research i have done in the past
Ouch.... These impulse buys never seem to work out. After keeping fish for 5 years you would think I would not make a noob mistake like this. 
. Well anyone near asheville, nc want a free pacu?
