Has anyone had sucess breeding your pirahna? And how do you do it. Cause i figure they get more agressive when they have there fries. Im just wondering really.
 
reds only.nothing special.have to have some mature fish in a big enough tank and have all the basics covered right,and then add some luck and you have it.
yeah the pair gets aggressive and all torn fins,after the laying is done the male hovers around the 'nest' and gets real dangerous to trespassers...
 
only with reds, like pyromaniac said just to have all the basics covered but in my case my tank wasn't big enough and was a bit over stocked. really depends on the fish, if they wanna do it they'll do it. but you'll need to start with enough so that the chance of having both sex is much greater.
 
what type of cover is needed to have them i have 8 in a 125 and once 5 mature in a few months i figure i might get some babies...idk what i would do with them though
 
when you can see fry in the tank take them out and then put them in a separate tank with spoong filter(s)
