Red Pacu sizes

[Red Devil]

I just added 4 more blacks from Newport Aq to my collection. They are over 40 lbs and roughly 40" right now. The 'big' one weighs close to 60 lbs.

Also added 8 Piaractus mesopotamicus. They are a smaller pacu. All of them are about 15" right now.

Next week sometime I'm getting another 40 lber from National Aq. The week following I'm getting 5 adults from Henry Doorly Zoo (Omaha Zoo).

Pics to follow..........

wow cannot wait to see them..
