Any advice? Well first I would sell all my rbps and get come cichlids... :ROFL:

How many gal is the tank?
 
think its 55 us gallons but im in uk it 48x12x18 i was thinking about some oscars but im told they would creat to much waist for a tank of that size i dont really have the space for a bigger tank :(

I think 4 RBPs would be alright, but i'm no expert on p's
I know where some nice ones are for sale if you want some 3 of them.
 
3-4 RPB,s would work fine in a 48"x 12 1/2"x 21" tank (standard 55g). any more would be pushing it, a few bunches of bushy plants as visual breaks will help minimize aggression. Don't use expensive ones because rpbs sometimes go in for gardening.
 
dont be confused piranhas are prolly just as messy as oscars are when it comes to feeding and waste......u would prolly need a good amount of filtration for 3-4 in a 55g.....i would suggest 2 ac110.....
