You've got quite a few beasts in there.
Is it a red or black pacu? And they're all cool with each other? What are you feeding? Does he just eat what you feed the others or are you able to offer him veggies and nuts as well?Post all Giant Pacu's here!!

No. The carrot was thrown in for video purposes only. Our pacu eat pellet food almost exclusively. They make too big a mess with veggies, fouling the water and raising nitrates higher and faster than we care to do water changes.
Here's the direct link to the videos

Here they are a few years ago eating potato "chips". Adonis gets the best of Leonardo de Fishio, the tank pig/bully. He inhales his chip, which is stuck in his mouth, and is unable to pick up the last chip.

Sorry for taking so long to post some pics. I took him out of the pond to measure him and he is 16in, not 17. Right now hes in a 200 gallon pond, but will be moved in to the 240 tank in a couple months. While hes in there ill make him his new pond, Somewhere around 2000 gallons. Also thinking of getting him a friend once hes in the 2000. Sorry about the net blocking the fish, I couldnt risk the fish falling on to the ground.
there was a short in the wire under the tank.. it caught fire and heated up the bottom of the glass tank and it cracked completely and the 220gal was no longer... brand new only a year old tank... but we had a storm and the power surge protector shorted out..and got wet ... the little cichlid i still have .. but the stress it caused the pacu was too much to save them.BlackShark11k;3370725; said:

If that Pacu is 20" I can't imagine how massive that gator gar must be.
