Heres my 55g Piranha tank. I posted it a month or so ago heres just an updated picture after I moved it to the kitchen and changed a few things around.

Just bought a 125 gallon that they will be going in as soon as I sell all the fish that came with this tank.

Suggestions for what to fill the 55g with once the rb are out are welcome. Im thinking an elong.

Last picture is of the 125g there going in.

There are 8 or 9 (not sure if a lost one) Red Belly in here. 5 are 2.5 inches while the other 3-4 are 1.5 inches. they were all dime size when I bought them. Just bought the first 5 then bought 5 more two weeks later.

Pictures are kind of blurry will try to get better ones. And they were being very skittish when I was snapping pictures. Will try to get better ones of the piranhas themselves along.

Suggestions are welcome.
 
Those pictures make me feel drunk, but I really like how you made your 55g tank look. Nice piranhas to. :) Just take the fish to a LFS and get store credit.. Are you going to decorate the new 125?

Ya sorry about the blurriness camera wasnt focusing well.

Im going to leave the gravel thats already in there, I really like the black substrate though. Down the road I may replace the gravel in the 125 with black sand.

But for the 125 I wanna get a little bit of slate to put in places. The guy selling it actually offered me any of his decorations. He had a big tub of slate, rocks, and tacky decorations. I should have taken the slate, o well.

Anyways slates and a some swords, anubias, and whatever other plants that are easy to keep and look good along with some top cover and driftwood. I have two more pieces I can put in there along with the two already in the 55g.
 
Awesome, when are you making the transfer? And what filtration is on the 125?
 
Will move them as soon as I get rid of the fish that are in the tank now. If I dont sell the fish in there by the weekend then the fish are going to the lfs.

Filtration is a emperor480 and a magnum 350.
 
You mean emperor 400? Those are whats on your 55 or 125?

What do you have on both your tanks, how about that..
 
okay, so those are whats on the 125g? If so, you shoulld get more.. What filters are on your 55g?
