Rescued two more pacu. The lady bought them, put them in her tank, watched them grow quickly, and then called about them. I honestly was expecting them to be bigger. Anyway here is a pic showing the various sizes of them and some of the silver dollar school. This now makes five, hence the crazy part.

Right now a 630 gallon pool, eight feet across. Two are at four inches, two at 6-7 inches, one at 16 inches.
 
yeah id like to see more pics.... i always wondered if this would actualy work .. the pool idea...

pacu are awesome...
 
aha! the 16in one looks like a beast compared to all the other fish. thats great of you for doing this though, so many people just buy them and when they get to big just let them die or euthanize them.
