feeding small black piranhas

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
My dad used to have a piranha and he would always tell me stories like when he was low on money, he would feed it bologna but it wouldn't eat if he was watching. He would have to sneak around a corner to get to see it. He only had one piranha and kept it in a 55 gallon. As a lot of other posters have stated, they are probably just stressed out from the travel. I would recommend testing your water. As long as there isn't anything abnormal, I wouldn't worry too much.

Like I said before, water is perfect.
 
Nice. You don't see pics of baby black rhoms too often. If i was closer i'd be interested.

Are piranhas popular in the fish keeping hobby in Illinois?
 
how far are you from 60073?
do you carry only baby black piranhas? can you get bigger ones? like 8-10" or so?
I know someone in 60073 is looking for a diamond rhombeus around that size or a manueli (could be smaller)

I believe you had a typing error. I think you meant to say that you picked up IT datnoids. Indonesian Tigers not Siamiese Tiger.

As for your blacks, how much are you selling them for? Photos would be nice. GL with raising them for the sale.

Time will tell if it's a typo- they are white,black,orange and I've seen the "supposed" parents.

Not sure where 60073 is. I'm from Chicago. I get a bunch of different fish all the time. I can get 10" diamond rhoms.

60073 is Round Lake, about 1 hr from Chicago.
How much would a 10" diamond rhom go for? and can you get manueli as well? what size and how big?
thanks

PM sent. I can get 4" and 5"+ medinai, which I believe are similar if not the same as the manuelii
