Possibly Caribe, I've never owned a piranha before though so I'm probably wrong, You'd probably get more help if you posted this in the Piranha Forum.

Very Nice...I am new to the Piranha World but I love it so far...These guys are great. I am going to set up a 150 gallon tank...Maybe try to learn up some more and breed them just because I believe it would be pretty cool to do. I was thinking of getting another tank and putting either 10 caribe 1" or 10 black 1"....What do you all think?

I think Caribe have a big black dot on their gills.

look like regular red bellies to me, how big are they?

read up on your research, you can't keep "black" piranhas together.

He is correct, They are a solitary fish.

from the look of it I would say p. nattereri. cariba has clear eyes and I can see red on this one.
