Heres my 75Gl fish tank, its a very simple tank setup, i had to remove all the ornaments because my Red Belly Pacu likes to swim fast sometimes and makes a hole mess in the tank , im planning on adding some small fake plants so he cant destroy it, any suggestions??

Yes that is a simple tank! He is a big boy! I have some fake plants laying around here somewhere that I don't plan on using.......

Nice tank and Pacu!!!

wow. he is a monster. cool stuff.

Nice looking Pacu. How long is he? He looks about the size of our two. I would also suggest placing something vertical and relatively heavy in front of your heater. When they get their spurts, they will tend to get that thing moving, even if the suction cups are good. Last thing you want is a broken heater in a tank that size.

As for plants, anything you put in should stay near the back so he still has the full length of the tank for swimming. I have found that they will even remove short plants in their main swim pattern.

Do you plan on putting in any other fish to keep him company? Some dithers might help him remain calm.

That guy is gonna get to 24 inch. Quickly. Lol

He's now 12in almost 13, yes hes been growing very fast because all i give him is shrimp, its a good idea about putting plants on the back, i have a african knife and a eclipse catfish, i just bought a Silver Tiger Datnoid yesterday and it looks that they are getting along very well i guess, god if he gets to 24in i dont know what im gonna do with him lol, i cant afford a 120gl right now (unless i find a cheap one)..

That's a big boy!

Look on CL for a tank or start digging a pond!

What CL area are you in? I'm good at tracking down tanks.

i agree with kory, start digging a pond lol. he is going to get huge.
