Pacus anger me sometimes. I had a small one that bit a chunk out of the head of a tsn I had about 2 years ago. Took another year to find another one. Worse than that was the pacu decided to commit suicide about 2 days after killing my tsn. He found the only 2 1/2" gap in the back of the tank and was mummified in the morning when I found him. Oh well. I now have 3 tsn lol, but no pacus as of now. If I can find some black pacus I might get some.

lol i better get sum of those. although i doubt that my fish would eat pellets anymore. they all eat defrosted dead shrimp and fish. did u have to train ure fish much to eat pellets or did they already eat them since they were babies?

actually sam now prefers massivore to table shrimp or smelt

they pretty much all like the pellets when they are hungry ( dats ??)

but the fish i have raised myself grew up on dry foods
