But people do keep them together, but I would not suggest it for your first group of P's
A Spilopleura is a Serrasalmus. Perhaps one of the only serra breeds that can be kept in shoals, although I doubt it in the long run.
do not put serra's with pygos.( or with anything ).they are fin eaters and will nip constantly on the other fish fins..it is stress in the tank..and pygos will kill in the end.
pygos you can keep together, all 3 species combined, be thet natereri, pirayas or caribas...
My 2 cents

thats kool..good luck keep us posted..I shoaled a s sanchezi with reds for about three months till my friend bought the red spilo from me,,,..had fin nips the first 2 weeks and then ...nothing...i had some luck
Just a short vid of the gold spilo .
as of today things are very calm with the gold and the reds .
They feed together and do not fight .
The first cupple days they did not play so nice , I think the reds put the gold
in its place , And it understands it dose not run the tank .
it strest the reds out for about three days now they do not seam to
mind It in the tank with them . Kind of like my female convic that swam
amongs them for a month before I found a home for it .
I think its good the gold is tuff and minds its own buisness or it would be
dinner . and unlike my mail convic that my reds ate,the gold is not to balzy .
This vid is the second day of being in tank .
