hey, i have my pacu in a 29g tank... i know its small.. but o well.. DONT THINK I AM A BAD FISH OWNER FOR WHAT I AM SAYINF OR WHAT IM GONNA SAY... i had lots of reds, but i have been selling them and few died.. i have 2 left about 5-6'5''..... and the pacu is about 7''... i dont knot what to do with the pacu, bcuz hes so big and causing problems in my other tank... he suppose to be a herbivore but is turning into a carnivore. so i am putting him in with my reds this weekend.. i dont know what will happen, but i need to take the risk, bcuz i have heard lots of storie.. i will tell you what happens..

sorry this is long... please tell me what u think or any opinions on this whole situation i got going.. thanks

Honestly get a bigger tank or the pacu will die, it is that simple. Or find a friend with a 1000g+ tank or pond and enjoy the fish that way.
 
ppl have mixed results cuz they mix them with HUGE tanks, that 45g is not gonna house that pacu long, and their will be fights among them all. I promise. I wouldn't do it cuz your reds will get very territorial, not after long either, either that or pacu comes in and owns them both. Either way, OWN3D
 
yeah i will... its like a 40% chance it lives... or something.. but i hope its alright...

and yeah i wish i could, but not many ppl can have or afford a 1000+ g tank.... and having a heated pond would be hard.. so this is my only option...
 
you'd be better off giving the pacu away. thats a better option...and I don't even give it a 40% chance...the reds will eat it most likely
 
ya

yeah it prob is less then 40%... but there is no way in hell i can catch or get that 7''+ pacu in a net, bag or anything!!!! its wild and out of control... so what do i suppose to do... the reds will have fun and bond. :)

yeah it b cramp a lil... and for a short amount of time, until the reds decide what they wanna do... their home.
 
I'm still dying to know why you got banned from p-fury.....but anyway, what if the pacu hurts ur RBs bad?....I know they will win but its not worth the risk. If I can catch two RBs in a 10g bare tank and not get hurt, you can catch your pacu with a bucket and a big azz net...
 
hha i really dont know why i really go banned... so thats dumb...

and If I can catch two RBs in a 10g bare tank and not get hurt whats that mean?? u said that...

and how would the pacu hurt my reds??? how??? and if it does, i will jus take it out.. the reds should whoop on its asss..... sad... but no other choices...

we left our big fishing nets for salmon in out boat at our cabin, so i dont have a big enough net!!!! lol
