A Pacu might live up to 7 or 8 years old.
But most likely around 5 or 6.
In two years they will grow to be 24 inches (2 Feet.)
They eat more than you imagine.
THANKS bye.
While I can not tell you exactly how long they live, I can tell you they live for a long time (many years) because they grow to over 60lbs in weight.
5-15 years generally
Yes a 3 inch pacu can live two 5 to 6 inches oscar!!!!!
both pacu and piranha eat live meat and they both can have red bellies too. the real difference is between their jaws, nose and teeth. piranha has a produting lower jaw while pacu has a round mouth. pacu's nose is button shaped but piranha's nose is unmistakable. and piranhas have much larger teeth than pacus.
Pacu are not as aggressive as Piranhas but can be if threatened.
on admission into the pacu, 30 minutes after admission into the pacu, and at 60 minutes
the st. Vincent parrot has a shorter beak and brighter colors but the pacu has a long beak non bright colors and no anus

It is never right to put Amphibians in with fish. The amphibian will poison the water.
I think you mean Pacu: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pacu
Not all species that are piranha-like are carnivores. The Pacu-Pacu generally eat seeds that fall into the water and they look like piranhas. The Pacu-Pacu can also be kept in tropical home aquariums as a species tank.
Amazon Basin. West Indies. South Central Asia. (They are starting to spread in Florida.)
A pacu is any of several South American freshwater fishes related to the piranha.
