Red Belly Pacu

The Red Belly Pacu is an awesome monster fish. Originally sourced from south America, it is widely confused for a Piranha. Although they are relatives of the Piranha, there are some clear differences; Pacus have almost human-like teeth, they are also a plant eating fish, and rarely go after flesh, they also get much larger than piranhas.

This fish would make a great species only monster tank, but can dwell with other monster fish as well.
