What size tank do you have for your pacu?

I have him in a 50 gal tank as a growout, but I'll soon put him into the 100 gal until I have enough money and space to buy 450. I still have time to save money, right? :D

I hope so, pacus are infamous for fast growers. The 450 should be plenty though...once you get it.

yeahp, I'm planning to put him with my silver arowana and clown knife.I just hope putting 2-3 angelfishes would make the tank beautiful :)
 
i knew a guy who owned a lfs in montana and he had a pacu that was at least 35-40 pounds, there big suckers:)
 
I hate to inform one-
But even the 450 gal wont suffice for a pacu....
even a 8x3x3 tank wont happen either for life anyhow......

Adding silver aro and a clownknife is not going to be recommended either---
Thats 3 fish with potential of hitting 3 foot-You do the math......

Nah, nevermind about it, I didn't ask for the tank requirements in the first place anyway.
