caribe or piraya

[jp80911]

Rule of thumb would be 20 gal for every pygo......But I tend to go with over stocked tanks-
I dont know your knowledge on Piranha so I wont recommend an overstocked tank for you----

IMO-
Piraya seems to cannibilize eachother alot more than Caribe-Caribe seem to fin nip and such alot more though...

Either would look impressive-I seem to like tanks more with one species instead of mixed-But that all certainl personal preference....

Filtration seems fine if went with recomended piranha for space given..Piraya can get huge-Alot bigger than caribe can..Just take forever to grow them up.

Thanks.
I've only had rbps before but never caribes nor piraya.

Caribes are in a 125 gal tank right now-Only little guys all under the 3 inch mark right now....Have ponds and other tanks to split them when needed....

Will your friend willing to sell me 8-12 caribes now

waiting now.

someone from p-fury told me that there's a vendor/lfs that has caribes now (~3") and will find out price for me and give me the address.
still waiting to hear back from that person.
if price is right and not too far then I'll probably go pick some up during my Xmas break. Will see...worst case is to wait for aquascape.

just called S.A. they don't have any.

Either they are gone very quickly or they updated their website too late.
