Thanks RD-
I know they are vegi's,hence why I said just to get him started-I feed him his nutrients as well-He just fancy's the shrimp a bit more.Mine has never accpeted(sp) grapes,really,he will eat one or two-but then he's done with them.I've personally heard bananas at high levels are not good for them-So I choose not to get him started on them.Please inform me If I have been misinformed.Mine really like a product called Nutrafin,And they produce a pellet called Vitamax that he really like-But at 11.49 a piece gets really spendy-When he can eat over a hundred of them at a time(yes I have counted them each individually)LOL.But I understand where ya commin from-
I sure do love them when they are at that age also-Kinda cute lookin-
Now I have to be nosy here,And please forgive me-But I see you have a aro,Two pacu's-Not ?'s you,But mind tellin me how big your tank is?

That was the old days in with the arow.. we bought them a 220gal and the 2 pacu are alone in there except for an african cichlid that they think is their baby..the 220 gal is not big enough ... need about 500gal.. we did put them into a pond and they nearly died on us.. they could not see out i quess and stopped eating.. we waited 3 months and then we could not stand it anymore and put them back in the 220gal.. where they ate almost as soon as they were back.. they are very sensitive fish... that food is great.. i feed alot of that to my other fish too.. also i give my arows arow pellets and shrimp pellets {forgot} but mostly the veg. They are halarious looking and sooo much fun..I just hope they never make too many waves
that isn't 22"

LOL-I have vids posted-Showing he cant turn in my 125 gal(yes cruel,But documented proof also)-I could honestly care less what you think-Many people know and my reputation on the forums goes along way Sir-I dont need to prove **** to you-
The only thing I see here is a bad judgement on guessing ones size-LOL,Come back when you figure out how to tell the length of fish-
