I just love them.

Same here! One chomp of those set of jaws and they severe the mealworm into half! Very nice to watch them eat.

You meant big eaters right? Haha!

And they grow quite fast. Only thing I hate about them is that they will destroy any plants in the water with them. Every time I see a plant floating on the water surface, I will think to myself, ... bloody pacus!!! Hahaha
