There have been many threads on the proper care and housing of these species. The overwhelming comment is unless you're prepared to have hundreds of gallons don't bother. My thinking is a bit outside the box as I've seen pacus and arowanas kept for years leading perfectly happy lives in aquariums that they will eventually out grow.
I don't think these fish are for the novice or the hobbyist on a budget, but I can think of a few reasons where caring for, and enjoying these fish might be practical. Any thoughts?
