hi, I have a 7-8inch pacu, when i got him he was about 4 inches and wasnt agressive at all, all the suden he's started to pick on his other tankmates alot, I havent added any new fish or anything recently. His tankmates are one 11inch oscar and a 6 inch severerum. Can anyone give me any tips to make him stop atacking the other fish? He's a very nice looking and freindly fish I really dont want to have to give up.
Thanks in advance!

I got Pacu in my 120 gallons tank,,, and I tell you what... he is freakin huge!! I would say he is about three feet long... weight about 40 lbs. They can be agressive toward other fishes if they feel that tank is its own territory. BTW.... they grow fast and big. He soon need to be in 300 gallons tank!

He's got to be a troll. 3ft pacu in a 6x2x2? A 3ft pacu would be pushing 2ft in height if not more.
