how many p's for a 75g

[bsotir]

I just started up my 75g aquarium again and am looking to do red belly p's. how many can i keep in the 75 without them getting too agressive. i have a fluval and magnum 350, airlines and powerheads so there is plenty of oxygenated water. they are just little guys no more than the size of a quarter. i was planning on doing 7. any advice? thanks

pacus? ;p

7's a good number,..pretty canabalistic at that age, so, a few extra is a
good thing.

7 piranhas, 0 pacus

it's actually 20 per gallon with piranha but i'd do 7 and hope to end up with 4-5 by the time they reach sub adults

I don't think you meant 20 per gallon. More like 1 per 20 gallons. LOL

4 maybe 5 they told me 5 for my 55g 10g a fish that didn't work about half grown they just kill of each other at the end only had 3 that made it So i would say for a 75g 4 or 5 good luck
