tank is looking much better thanks everyone for the help...and "JP" you have some nice Piranha's hopefully mines will grow like yours.....thanks again everyone!!! here is a recent pic taken with my phone ( forgot to take the flash off ) he is the a little bit bigger then my blackberry....i want a bigger tank so bad but don't have the space for now hopefully soon...

maybe 1 month and a half....much more active.. still in a 20 gallon ...not cool....want a bigger tank...in the process of moving....I would put a tank in every room...lol...my pops has a 150 gallon with a green arrow and a king pelco fish in the basement...so jealous..I could just imagine my fish in there.....

do you think the bigger piece of wood should be removed? is this decor to big for the tank please have a look @ the images and any feedback would be great........I know I need a bigger tank just no space for now...this tank is just a temp until I move in 3-4 months..

i think that wood looks fine. the fish is still small so that tank would be ok for now. you can always add a power head to give it some current to exercise about.
if you do upgrade, go with a 75g and it will probably be big enough for life or a very long time. a 4'x2'x2' 120g or 4'x2'x30" 150g will be good for life.
if 4ft tank is too big atm then can always get a 40g or 50g breeder tank and upgrade again when you can.

thanks again..Im interested in a local posting for a 75g with filter. heater and glass top for $300 bundle with a 6 " manueli piranha ...he wants to sell it as a bundle or I wait till he sells his fish for $200 and sell me the tank and accessories for $150.....I heard that manueli Piranha are aggresive..but i dont care about aggression i wanted a bigger tank for my Rhom since day one.....is his fish priced right? should I just get the bundle and put my rhom in the 75g and place the manueli piranha in the 20g untill i can sell it? anyone had both breeds before to compare? thanks agian for everyone guys

manueli is nice fish, got a unique look to it. if you have no means of keeping 2 fish I would just wait for the tank to become available and keep on looking in the mean while.
manueli is more sensitive to water condition and stress than other piranhas so you don't wanna risk it somehow dies in your 20g and you are down $200
