Sorry for another post, I'm still trying to work out this website. I don't really know how to search everything yet.

I have a 150 gallon tank currently with 3 Oscar's. I am selling the Oscar's.

How many red belly piranhas could I put in a 150 gallon tank?
 
I would go with 9

I had a 135 with 8 rbp and they were way active with plenty of space.

3 there about the same size as those oscars.
 
8 will do great. But 10 is fine too. you can put alot of RBPs in a tank as long as it's filtered great and has lots of hiding spots and they have food lots of food.
 
id go with 8 and maybe a plec too for algea control, as olng as there well fed they shouldn't bother it
