because you have two fish that have outgrown the tank they are in and that are not being cared for correctly.

If you do end up getting a bigger tank for them try to get at least a 75 and then add one or two more p's of similiar size. That will help with the aggression issues with the two.

With two piranhas one will always be picked on by the bigger, four is a good number for a small shoal.

You should just get four or five more and put them in your 120g

They have not outgrown there tank and its not like there eating each other, there fins are fine and have been ever since i got them, and the larger one isnt bulling the other, its the other way around only when theres food one eats more the more aggressive one eats first but is smaller (thiner then the other one, but average sized) while the other one is a pig like abnormally fat. and i dont want more piranhas i want other species for my other tanks. Both piranha are happy and well feed, ones just really well feed. Im am getting either a 45 or 55 for them and im not looking for any lip about it, you got comments about my chocie of tank i dont want to here it.

anyways you piranha guys need to all i was looking for was guys who piranhas were exibiting the same behavior, not all this contraversy

we are just trying to help you out but guess you dont like constructive critism and maybe you should stop thinking you know everything and maybe step back and take some advice once in a while.

but hey its cool, whatever floats your boat, I just feel bad for that growing list of dead fish that you have accumulated

The fish on that list died 2 years ago and the asian many years before the others, i dont know everything never said i did thats y i joined this site, but frontosablkrhom has been nothing but horrible, his commonts were unclalled for and rude and maybe mine ones directed at him were to but as the kid saying goes he started it.

wow...
honestly, stop talking. listen to what people are telling you. Other than the guy that basically grilled ur behind, ive read at least 3 good pieces of advice. the problem, is that when you get it...you dont take it or even think about it to apply it. If you're just gonna shoot the advice you get down, then dont even ask. why bother wasting thread space.
im not yellin at you, im just sayin.
think before you open your mouth.

i didnt put up this thread looking for advice all i wanted was to disscuss piranha aggression towards there own kind

Wow.,., talk about over killing a simple answer for the poor guy.,., you know.,. there are ways of informing people without verbally berating them., just because you know a thing or two about a thing or two., does not.,., in any way.,., make you an expert.,., and the fact the you routinely attack people who ask questions that youve deemed "Stupid" for yourself.,., just shows the blatant lack of maturity in which you conduct yourself.,., I hope for your sake.,., and the sake of those in your general area.,., that this attitude problem only exists.,., in an anonymous internet forum.,., Please try to remember that everybody has a learning curve.,., there was a time., when you didnt know anything.,., and im sure.,., had your own fair share.,., of "stupid questions"

The purpose of an Internet forum is to encourage discussion of a certain topic., to benifet the entire community.,., it is not here for people to try to prove that they are better then anyone else through "superior knowledge"

i think your correct in what your saying....i can understand where hes coming from but just needs to reword and b a lil polite.
someones asking for help and we need to help as my gran tells me (on a regular basis) if you havnt got anything nice to say dont say it at all.
i only looked on here to see if there was anything i could help with but its piranhas and i dont know much so i cant help, but just feel he was treated a lil unfairly straight off. wer not doing what we should be doin and that is the point of this forum

hope all works out mate

now i now nothing about sexing them but is it possible ones male and ones female?

cuz i now with bass that i got, i bought 25 of them from a pond stocking place they started off all the same size 1 inch raised them in a tank for a while trained them to eat artifical shield after a mounth of fatnning them up i kept the fatest one ant the most colorful pattern one. now im positive female bass of the same age are larger then the males and now there about 6-7 mounths old the female is about triple sized of the other.

I dont read where the guy thinks he knows everything.,., I think what happened here,., is a case of a person asking a simple.,., innocent., question.,., and then getting his butt handed to him by someone who came at him.,., completely over agggresive., rude.,., and flat out belligerent.,.., poor guy asked a question.,., expecting to be welcomed into the community., and was flat out told he was stupid.,., that he should take all of his fish back.,., and no wonder all his fish die because he clearly doesnt know what hes doing.,., then after he attempts to respond.,., hes corrected very smuggly about a small simple typo.,., and told hes wrong and stupid again.,.,., Can you really blame the guy for developing a bit of a negative attitude twords the people who he came to for help on this subject.,.,

Put it this way.,., If you were to go into someones kitchen and ask a simple question like.,., "wheres the milk".,., and you were smacked in the face and told you were stupid., You dont even deserve to have milk.,., because of your gross incompetence.,.,., How would you react?

if you wanna help the guy out., then fine.,., if your just gonna be a dick about it.,., then respectfully.,., STFU.,.,.,., Im not trying to be mean.,., just trying to inform the guy
