Just visited our lfs here and they got a new shipment of fishies in. Did my normal walk about down the isle and saw an 8" pacu in a small tank with a bag of new fish floating in there. Couldnt tell what they were but they are small.

The guy workin there was working on releasing the fish in the other tanks. I asked him if he was actually going to put those little ones in with the pacu and he said yep.

Was really surprised. But then again... Who am i to say right? I just said ooooooook and continued my walk about. I'm sure as i was leaving, i heard the pacu smackin his mouth. :)

That's a shame really, keeping a pacu in any tank under 100 g. minimum is just bad IMO. One of my LFS's keeps 4 that are almost 2 ft. long in a 600 (i think) with a 2.5 ft. red-tailed catfish. Freaky thing is that every one is older than me...one is 35 years old....
