it's an awesome fish dude!
I personally love piranhas, and there are very few fish that can be compared to a huge rhom.
They're relatively easy to care for, with no special requirements. You may want to have lots of turbulance in the tank as they often live in fast flowing streams. So a few big powerheads will do.
They eat whatever your other fishes eat, except you can practically throw any live food in there... even stray cats in your neighborhood LOL.

I got a sugestion: keep the water clean & clear, take care of your hand(s) when U will change water from the tank, offer him/her shrimps and defrost fish, earthworms (first, try on the fish this kinda food, see it will enjoy it!!!). AVOID feeders/mice (live)/stray cats... 
NEVER try to shoal him... NEVER!Keep the temp. around 25-27 degrees Celsius (if U wanna se what a monster can do, rise up the temp, but NEVER up of 28 degr.C!).
Hope these will work...

Just throw a semi-large snakehead in there, and that will end one problem....Of course create another....
well yes,naturally that would create another problem,as nobody really feels like picking pieces of snakehead out of their filter media,im sure.
