Large Red Belly Pacu

[Guapote]

so really? should i just bbq the monster? i don't think i could actually eat it..

They say "you are what you eat"

Can't see myself eating a fish made up of Hikari Gold......probably better than what most fish eat in the wild but it is too close to home.

Wow! awesome pics vaine! Maybe i'll try craigslist.. Had one guy on here say that he knew someone that would want him but i never heard from him again! oh well, you win some, you lose some!

Still got him here..... damn, i guess nobody likes these fish very much.... Guess I'm gonna have to start digging the pond in my backyard!...

From past experience, Pacus are very tasty barbicued with lemon.

thats terrible
he obviously cares about the fish and wants it to be happy

nice pacu! to bad you cant keep him you could go on craigslist and find him a 180 for cheap.I wouldnt eat him esp if you medicated the tank in the past like someone said you are what you eat.

I'm local but can't fit it.

I've actually caught a 2ft pacu out of a laguna lake once. haha.

Find someone's pond to throw it in. They eat koi, right?
