    Well I walked into my principals office today at school and he has a 5 gallon fish tank with a paroon shark ( Ithink), 2 pacus, and a oscar. I started telling how that THAT tank was way to small for all those fish. I told them that the oscar would need a 75 gallon and the pacus 125 and up, and the same with the paroon or whatever he is. Anyway he says you know a lot about fish he gives them to me and I say '' I am crowded with fish already. I am in the process of building a pond for all my cats'. I've found homes for the pacus and oscar there going to a guy from MFK with a big pond.
    Now I've decide to keep the Panginus because I don't know if he is a paroon, ID or what ever. I have an id shark already and he looks nothing like him. So I take a few pics... for you guys. I may add him to the pond if hes not a dwarf. I personally think hes a paroon or a Pangasius pangasius

    Sorry, but I think you are full of shit....where is the Oscar and the 2 Pacus? What are you going to do with another potential big catfish you don't even have a positive ID on?

    Ohh excuse me... if you don't see them in the pics there not there. I gave them to a local fish club who grows them out and then probably gives them to a local museum. OK

    It sounds like you got these fish today? Did you get the whole tank or just the fish?

    No offense, SDD, and you have every right to tell me to go to the dogs if you don't like what I am about to say.
    But may I offer some advice? I set up an outdoor pond every spring, but must take it down in fall due to climate. I bring in a few of my favorites, the rest go tot the LFS. My LFS loves the 4-5" goldfish I bring them every fall. Every late winter/spring I am very eager to go and get extra goldfish (I know the temptation of "just one more fish" very well). But I have to restrain myself. The best way is to say "no more fish until the pond is for at least 2 weeks and is stable".

    Basically wait until the pond is up before getting any more fish. Murphy's law says what can go wrong - will. There will probably be unforeseen problems in the ponds construction, which will delay its usable date.

    As I always say to other beginners (and some no so beginners) - patience is priceless, and your fish will thank you for it.

    Just my two cents.
