been a while since I posted anything let a lone a picture update.

sorry for the quality, took with a phone, let me know what you think

dont mind the air stone in the front of the rb tank. Had an emergency, and they weren't getting much aeration in the water so added for the time being

the one brandtii was being shy so only pics of the one of them. the other one is almost equal size will be going into the 75g once I get the plants the way I like em. Right now the 75 just has some birchirs in it.

13 rbps ~ 4-6 inches
1 maneulli ~6 inches
2 brandtiis ~ 3 inches
4 gold macs (had 5 they ate one) ~ 1 inch

threw some pics of my fh in there too, the only non piranha I found I enjoy keeping.


enjoy

few more better pics of the mannuelli when it was in the 75g . I let the plants go a bit too much and stop maintaining them and adding ferts on a daily basis, took the manny out to a temp home and ripped out a lot of the plants and moved them around.

two more pics of the macs when I first got them

sweet tanks !!! i want some piranhas :)
 
Very nice, thanks for sharing
 
I have just started to try and grow plants in my RB tank. Have you had any issues with being able to have enough light for the plants but dim enough for the RBs? Please send me a message back I am very interested!
 
Not really. I had bright lights with the p's since they were small I think they just sort of got used to it. The lights right now are a pc fixture 130 watts on at a time but is only 48" long leaving one side of the tank dark.. But once my new bulbs get here Im changing it to two 36" fixtures, t-5 bulbs around 200 watts spread across the whole tank.

When you first add lights it might be a problem but once they get used to it they should act normal again.
 
Yeah I have a 48" t5 with 260watt. I just got it in yesterday so they are still getting use to the lighting. Well thanks a lot for the input man and great tanks.
