Just got Piranha's.

well thanks for the replies, it is the second day I have had them and they seem to be fine. I fed them a little blood worms. They are not close to each other though, one is at one side of the tank and the other, well, at the other. I havent seen them nip at each other so I am hoping they wont fight, like my oscars did.
Should I put some fake plants in the tank? I have 2 clay pots in there right now, one big one small. I am afriad they will chew up or uproot the plants like my oscars did.

Definitely put some fakes in there (or real plants if you are so inclined!), I think I learned on here that if you keep there field of vision diced up so they stay out of eachothers site most of the time, it can help.

Thats good to know, I will do that.

I would add one more P to the mix and I would go no less than 55 gal on the new tank. All the advice about cover is good.

What kind of P's do you have??If you have Rhoms,2 will never last,RBP's you should have at least 3
