[Gaspar Jones]

I could be wrong, but it looks like some sort of Scat to me.

 

[Fishy_Fun]

i think its a pacu

 

[charlie4486]

it's definitely not a silver dollar.

 

[bamdad]

humm... looks like pacu hum?

 

[ibr3ak]

Try Metynnis lippincottianus or Metynnis maculatus.

 

[ibr3ak]

the shape pretty much insures its a pacu.

au contraire mon freir, not all silver dollars are round like a silver dollar

 

[Lupin]

Pacu is my guess. Any closeup pics? What's with its mouth?

 

[gvildawg]

I'd say Pacu also.
