hey is my tank setup, 180 gallon fish tank, 2'' diy pvc overflow, water pump rated at 1550 gph, here is some pics of my tank with the lil guys in their, their really happy :)
















and this is what i feed them bloodworms which i got when i brought the piranahs and shrimp from the supermarket






thats all for now, later i put some videos of them eating some shrimp, but let me know what you guys think, and ideas is always good cuase i'm a 1st timmer at this, thanks
 
just keep them filled and they will fill out your tank in no time
 
love the setup but not to fond of the artificial decorations... you will find that a happy set off p's thrive in a natural setting... if you recreate nature they will breed and be happy... my 2cents-good luck!

Thats what I said back in march when I got my fish. Now I ponder and toy over the idea quite often.

Love the location for the tank... right beside the table and tv :)
 
Looks like you need some lighting on that tank!
Very nice fishes... there are very cute, how big do they get?
How did you make that sump? It looks interesting.
 
The problem with P's is overfeeding because feeding them is so much fun and they are messy eaters. Do lots of water changes and in a year that's going to be an outstanding collection!
