i was wanting piranah's a very spontaneous buy today since i was going to buy a turtle

they are eating bloodworm and very shy right now,

the shop just had a label piranah, so i hope there not pacus

the shop just had a label piranah, so i hope there not pacus

unfortunately, my friend, that is an assumption none of us can make, anywhere in the world..lFS labels and truth is, most often, apples and oranges..

can we see some pix?

they are the 2 easiest fish to pick apart, look at pics of juvey comon pygo's and thena t the retarded pacu, clear cut jaw difference, I mena if they are fry, maybe but anything over half inch is easytown usa, and pygos are skittish by nature, especially in empty well lit tanks with high traffic

ok managed to get one in view, as 1/3 of the tank is hidden behind another tank its hard to get a pic of them since there soo small

in this tank is 1 river cooter turtle and 3 piranah and nothing else

and yes that is a spare tank in the bottom that will house the turtle when its larger

those are natts. the redbelly piranha.. <---- correct spelling btw
