“…tambatinga, a hybrid species of tambaqui and pirapitinga (Andrade et al., )] have been produced on a large scale by the aquaculture industry (Orti et al., ; Hashimoto et al., , ). Culture and breeding of pirapitinga for aquaculture and aquarium trade has also become popular in India, after being illegally introduced (Chatterjee and Mazumdar, ; Singh and Lakra, ; Roshni et al., ). Despite their economical importance, little is known about the endocrine control of feeding in pacus and other Serrasalmidae fish.…”

Pirapitinga (or red-bellied pacu, Piaractus brachypomus, Characiforme, Serrasalmidae) is an economically important South American fish for which the endocrine mechanism of the regulation of feeding has never been examined. To better understand these mechanisms, cDNAs encoding the appetite-regulating peptides orexin, cocaine- and amphetamine-regulated transcript (CART), apelin, cholecystokinin (CCK), peptide YY (PYY), leptin and ghrelin were isolated in pirapitinga and their mRNA distributions examined in peripheral tissues and brain. When compared to other fish, the sequences obtained for all peptides were most similar to those of other Characiforme fish (i.e. Mexican cavefish) and Siluriformes (catfish) as well as Cypriniformes (i.e. goldfish, zebrafish). All peptides were widely expressed within the brain. With the exception of CART, which was only expressed in brain, the mRNAs of all peptides were present in several peripheral tissues, including gastrointestinal tract, kidneys and gills. The widespread and peptide-specific distributions suggest that each peptide might have distinct physiological actions in the brain and on peripheral tissues, in particular on the gastrointestinal tract, which include feeding regulation. This preliminary study opens new avenues for further functional studies on the endocrine regulation of feeding in Serrasalmidae fish, including pirapitinga.

Что касается азиатских стран с благоприятными для обитания красного паку температурами, то поимки его особей за пределами рыбоводных ферм вызывают у исследователей тревогу из-за возможного негативного влияния на местную ихтиофауну (Roshni et al, 2014;Zeena, Beevi, 2014;.…”

В мае 2010 г. в оз. Червячном (о. Сахалин) была поймана особь красного паку Piaractus brachypomus стандартной длиной 271,8 мм и массой 691 г. В озере она провела непродолжительное время, на что указывает отсутствие у нее паразитов. Заполненность ее брюшной полости жиром показывает хорошее физическое состояние. В питании отмечены беспозвоночные, характерные для пресных озер Сахалина. Угрозы для местной экосистемы данный вид не представляет, поскольку минимальные температуры водотоков и водоемов Сахалина в холодный период года меньше нижнего предела выживания красных паку. В озеро особь была выпущена, скорее всего, аквариумистом-любителем.

“…Its records were made internationally for the first time in Argentina in 1987 (Lopez et al, 1987), in Slovakia in 2004 (Hensel, 2004), and Iran in Lake Zarivar in western Iran (Zarei and Rajabi, 2017) and considered as an invasive species of the Iranian aquatic environment (Hamid et al, 2017). India classified it as alien to the Indian aquatic environment, especially the Red belly Pacu in 2014 (Roshni and Kurup, 2014). It was recorded as an invasive fish in Polish waters in 2017 (Wiecaszek et al, 2017).…”

The present study attempts to shed light on some biological aspects and characteristics of Piaractus brachypomus, including some biometrics, phenotypic and feeding pattern that characterizes this species. Besides, the study touches upon the body shape and the Otolith. These fish species have recently been seen frozen in the Iraqi local market. The standard length of fish specimens in this study reach 26.55cm it exceeded the specimens of Pacu fish collected from other studies from other countries, As well the specimens weight was 632gm it exceeded other studies mentioned in this manuscript. As the irregularity in the distribution of teeth rows, especially in the lower jaw was clear in our specimens. The average weight of some skull bones of Piaractus brachypomus specimens is 2.25g, which gives evidence of the heaviness of the bones of this species.
