The 6' would be too small for rbp, but the 8' tank would work. Are planning on buying a large rhom or painfully growing a small one out?

I would like to purchase a large one but can not find one in Ontario Canada. I meant also with the 8ft tank was to put a divider in it one side rbps and the other a black piranha you think that will work ? or what tank size is the min for a big black piranha and what would be the min size for a school of 6 -9 full grown rbp ?

I have a extra 90 with a 35 gal sump I could use for a rhom but what I have been reading a rhom needs a bigger tank then a 90 ?

Rhoms grow incredibly slow. If you buy a 6" rhom it will be years and years before it would out grow the 90g. Now if you buy a monster 12"+ rhom then yea you would need a tank larger than 90g.
