Depending on the species Pacus can range from 12"+ (for the red bellied ones) to 36" for the grey ones. Despite their being vegetarians I have found that they will eat anything that they can fit into their large mouths. You might want to try and trade them for something at Liems in the I.D.. I had one that I traded back for a small credit. Mr. Liem seems to be able to place these fairly easily as the one I traded to him was gone in less than a week. If you are interested in seeing a particularly large specimin, check out the tank in the window at the restaurant Kau Kaus across from Liems. The owner their feeds it chunks of carrot which are 2" square and the Pacu naws on it at eats it readily. _______________________________________________ GSAS-Member mailing list GSAS-Member@thekrib.com http://lists.thekrib.com/mailman/listinfo/gsas-member
