I have seen Oscars up to 4lbs before. But you are right a Pacu can get 15lbs or more.
You definately need to re-think this, Pacu's can get upto 80lbs for the Balcks, and 60lbs for the Red's.
I have 3 red's housed in a 120 UK Gallon tank (150 US gallon) and they have outgrown it in less than 1 year. They are about 15" in length, and weigh about 5 lbs so far. Oscars only get to about 15" or so, so my Pacu's at a year old, are already bigger than my 3 year old oscar.
