EXOTIC FISH

Pacu (Piaractus Brachypomus): These large fish school in the largest pond. In their native Brazilian habitat, these primarily fruit-eating fish play an important role in seed dispersal during annual flooding of the Amazon. The three sunken basins nearby, formerly used to display alligators, now provide sheltering conditions for smaller fish and aquatic plants.
