Rescued from a 48 x 12" tank

I kid you not. I just rescued this Pacu from a 48" x 12" 40 gallon tank. Aparently this fish was dumped at the womans house by her exhusband and she couldnt bring herself to say no, which is sad. It spent 3 months stuffed into the tank. It couldnt turn around and the water was grey. I felt so terrible when i saw it i had to bring it home. Its now stuffed in a 72 x 18 tank. Its way to big for my tank but its a hell of alot better then where it came from. Im going on a huge hunt for a life time home for it so any one with a monster tank in Ontario contact away. The moral of the story? Dont buy/sell/trade Pacu!

Poor fish. At least your tank is a little better for it. Buy a stock tank for like 80 bucks, it'll give it room to turn around

I guess that was a nice going away gift from her exhusband!

If it out grows your set up I would be happy to give it a home. I can't say no to pacu.
