If you want to keep 3 piranha...You HAVE to go with a species from the pygocentrus genus ie. Red bellies, piraya, cariba ect..

you cannot keep any (except maybe geryi) serrasalmus species together

BUT you wouldnt be able to keep 3 pygos in their for life...you would need to upgrade eventually

Personally i'd go for a nice Serrasalmus Sanchezi...you could house one in a 55gal for life and they are lovely looking

I hope this helped ;)
 
No probs mate...so what do you think your going to go with?

Heres a pic of a georgous sanchezi i came across a while back on P-Fury...after seeing this pic i nearly bought one

They should be easy enough to get hold of one...but of course i live in the UK so im not 100% on how easy it would be for you...but they are not rare at all
 
Cool...but make sure you do some proper research and look about a bit before go and buy a sanchezi...you might find something else...but a sanchezi and maybe an irritan are the only piranha's you could house permanently in a 55gal
 
a mac or an eigenmanni would work out pretty well in a 55
