Documentation of My 1st Piranha fry experience! - pics/vids/comments

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Sorry guys! been a bit busy!

they have been doing great now. no more random deaths. i have lost a few to cannibalism which is considered normal from all the research I've done. but the losses have decreased by like 500% haha..i.guess when they reach the point of needing a bigger tank you have to do it in a timely manner instead of waiting days like i did or they'll start KOing.- now i know for next time.

they eat:
Freezedried blood worms and chopped up krill,
Frozen bloodworms and brine shrimp,
And Hikari carnivore pellets.

i feed them 3times a day. they eat enough to make you go broke LOL

sadly i am having someone over this afternoon to buy 30 of them. i figure i better sell em before they get out of control sizewise and i have no where to put them.

gigantor is still massive..getting the red belly already.
here is a vid i took yesterday (terrible youtube quality again) it gets really intense around 20secs in. they're so feisty!

So this thread will be coming to an end soon. i learned a lot and it was a lot of fun! i will probably grow out some more in a few months or so..this time more prepared and educated..should have much more success.

thanks for following along!
 
I'm so glad everybody's doing good. Gigantor is soo big lol. Well you can't keep um all. are you still gonna keep gigantor? That vid was crazy lol.please keep us updated in the general discussion
 
Just read through the whole thread, good job dude!
