Look man, I did not feel like saying this in any of your first 10,000 posts but you need to shut the hell up about your damn 12/20 gallon tank. People give you tons of suggestions and all of them go ignored, there is nothing "aggressive" you can stick in a damn 20 gallon tank. Relax and shut the **** up, will ya?

[BigFish]

nope

I think that you could have up to 3 redbellies in a 20g for a about 6 months or until they get over 3". Or you can have one rhom in there. Make sure the rhom is very small. About 1.5" should be ok for a while. rhoms grow very slow.

[digitalbliss]

Piranha-wise, I was told that you can use a 20g as a grow out tank until, like stated before, they are about 3" each.
I was also told that a 20g long would be a suitable for a singleton, but was also forewarned that a singleton will be very shy and it's not recommended to keep any less than 3 at a time.
1 will be timid, 2 will compete and will end up in the death of one or both of the fish, but 3 can be a community and great fun.

I would say that you should be able to house 3 adult rb's for life in a 55g. assuming they grow up together in it.

[digitalbliss]

Yea, also something else I was told -
If you're going to get a shoal of Piranha, you have to get them together. If you get one to put in your 20 gallon, and decide to upgrade later, do NOT introduce new ones.
I'm just giving advice I was given when i started a piranha tank.

[RhomBeusBoi]

You were told right.

LOL, I got to disagree though, there are lots of "agressive" fish that fit in a 20g. It just depends on what you mean by aggresive. Sticklebacks are very aggresive towards each other and fun to watch. Somehow I don't think this is what he means though. He could also stick in a large arowana if he folds it right.

Vital you are my HERO! :headbang2 :headbang2

[thamunsta]

i kept my 4 rbps in my 25g til they where about 4" and then i realized that it was COMPLETE AND TOTAL MADNESS NO SPACE OR ANYTHING in there and put em in my 55 where they are for the rest of thier lives

[RhomBeusBoi]

HAHA, madness fo sho!

[rweedon]

for those of you who think pacu's should be in a 55 gal do you know how large they get? 2 feet long and tall don't believe me the next time you go to Vegas go to Mandalay Bay's aquarium exhibit... best 15 dollars I have ever spent!!!

[STONEDFISH]

HAHAHA....I repeat "Get a bigger tank and change your avatar."

[RhomBeusBoi]

Werd.........that avatars weak, dogg....weak...

[guppy]

Seriously though, you could keep a singleton rbpiranha, or a whimples p. in a 20 for life, it wouldn,t be agressive though, just fat and lazy.

They are talking about Red Belly Piranaha's and not Pacus.

No.

:hitting: hahahahaha

[Serygo]

I wouldnt reccomend any piranhas in a 20g.

[boredcpl]

piranhas in a 20g is a starter tank for them...i started mine in a 10g and feed them like 4 times a day.. i shoveled the food to them and cleaned the tank alot...they grew fast and was transfered to a 50g they look happy and health and when they get bigger i might put them in my 105g.. if i havent done something different with the 105..

[oscar1]

no monster fish will fit in a damn 20 gallon tank by a bigger tank or get some tetra for yourself

[Just1nK4ng]
