A pacu is somehow related to a piranha and look eerily the same but the get huge!! My lfs owner has one at home he's had for over 10 years and is the size of my torso. They have some in the pittsburgh zoo and they still don't know how large the can get. They are vegetarian though and have mega powerful chomped that crush tree fruit/nuts that fall in the rivers they live in. Awesome fish!!

But, I had "one" goldfish that lived for like five years when I was in elementary school. His coloration and size kept on changing though... it was weird.
