I say convicts, guppies wont last for long.

Most people find convict to be the easiest to breed with large broods.
When I had my piranha I just went fishing in the summer time, Free Food!

You can even do crayfish, little more work though. I am just saying guppies are good for a little while, but when your fish get bigger, they need more food. Guppies dont cut it for bigger, hungrier fish.

What set up do you have the piranhas in? Did you splurge and get an entire 29 gallon tank for your shoal?

yeah actually i did until they get bigger then ill move them i didnt see what the point in spending a couple grand on a fish tank for fish that are only the size of a 50 cent piece right now

You can find tanks for alot cheaper than that.
