Now a week or 2 ago I got a 2nd hand 20 gallon tall tank and plan on switching over all my fish after cycling this one. I used 5 gallons of water from the 10 gallon on last water change to help cycle the 20g. Right now I have 2 dwarf cory, 2 oto's and 3 platy in the 10g until the 20g is ready. I have had such a hard time getting anymore dwarf cory, or even pygmy cory to fill out the group. I went to my aquarium ...

Anywho, some ancient guy was out fishing during the day today by me and reeled in a 16inch pacu. He only fishes for sport, knew it wasn't something native, but didn't want to kill it. So he threw it in a bucket, and brought it over to the fish and boat commission office by the lake. Turns out to be one of the fish and boat people I know, who's been over bringing turtles before and who's seen my pond of pacu. He couldn't remember ...
