Thats Awesome, have not seen them in years... Have heard that they are aggressive toward each other, would really like to hear your experiences....
They kind of remind me of manueli piranha without the humeral spot and redish gill plate
Thought this thread died out cause there were no responses but I guess not 
. They're doing great, the fins have all grown back now and just like other types of pacus these guys eat a LOT! Lol. I'll post some pictures soon but in the mean time here is a small video of them with a couple of my growouts . (You can't see them very well in this video, I apologize, the bambusa was the main focus )

There is 1 alpha in the trio, he (or she) eats first and then the rest can fight for the leftovers. But other than that I haven't seen a lot of aggression.
Haha yeah they do look similar
. They're doing great! Perfect dither fish for my other two growouts

Well according to fish base the don't get bigger than 6". But lets see, I don't plan on selling them anytime soon
