Yes it is a big tank but that is too many fish for it, even taking out the pacu, I suggest you thin out the stock to give them a chance of a vaguely happy life.

I have stocked it like that to try keep the aggression down. The Pacu is going, ive already told the missus and have put an ad up. They all get along fine most of the time, they seem happy.

Lol. Nice tank.

Thanks for all your comments.

Someone is coming to pic up the Pacu tonight, he's going into a massive tank, 14'x7'x4' I think, I will confirm that though.

I will get more pics and upload them soon.

Pacu is gone.

Some updated pics, the trimac died the other day, he took a big hit from one of the other bruisers, I found him slumped on his side but I couldn't save him. He was 9"

FTS

These shots were taken with the lights off and using flash.

I will take more pics soon of the rest of the fish and post them.

Thanks for looking.

Your PICTURES are HUGE! Its sad that you lost such a big Trimac. It's also crazy that you have a mystery bruiser in the tank that was able to kill a 9" Trimac! Your tank is like the wild west but I like it.

Bump. I have resized the pics for everyone's convenience.
