i have a gold piranha that is getting a black dot behind its gills, like the caribe, and he gets black sparkles , we have had him for a 2 1/2 years and he was little when we got him..has anyone else seen anything like that? i owned an older gold and it never had that...

Serrasalus Spilopleurea (spelling) do have a a humeral spot though you cant always see it. Here is a pic of my spilo/mac. Most of the time he is this nice purple color but occasionaly you can see his humeral spot.
I dont think he is in breeding colors. He is hte only fish in his tnak and he is only that dark if I forge to turn the tank light on all day.
sounds like S. maculatus to me. but my rhom has a humeral spot and gets yellowish from time to time.
you will need to post some pics for an ID but im sure whatever species it is that black spot behind its gills(humeral spot) is totally fine and dandy
