10 3"ers should be good for a while until they get bigger.... they could still do fine, but they're piranhas, don't trust 'em...
In the store there is 75-100 of them in a standard 75 and only a few have nipped fins.
 
So if I start out with 10 you think they will either thin themselves out to a good level or coinhabit?
 
i would go 10, no dout. piranhas all have diffrent personalitys, as like every fish. if they are feed well i dout there will be a problem. i would go 10. if they are at the petstore all togher with very few nipped fins, personaly i would get 10.

Ok, what size pump should I get for my wet dry? It is a 30galon with about 20 gallons of scrubbies? Will 1000gph be enough?

You want at least 2x the tank size.
