Misery
Out of the dozen or so pet shops here only 2 carry piranha. Well I sell babies to one of them, the other gets his from another guy by here.well I stop in at both regularly anyhow today I was at the one that doesn't sell mine n I've noticed this for months now but he has a dozen or so of rbp that were hatched right by new years well these fish are at the very most silver dollar sized!even today still that size! When he 1st got them they were nickle maybe quarter at most!maybe they mini rbp? 6 almost 7 months old n still dinky!I've raised 10 batches bigger than his n I started 2 months later! Anyone heard of piranha being that stunted that small?its no wonder he's barely sold any in 5months! N his are cheaper than the one that sells mine! Lol
 
Might not be getting quality food? or a poorly kept tank?
I have never heard of a mini rbp, maybe its like a purse dog but in fish form! hahaha
 
probably from poor diet or lack of food or poor water quality or maybe all of the above.
 
Poor lil dudes! The old man that runs it should know better, I just wanna slap him.tanks look fairly clean I don't think he deeds em much n what he does must not be worth a crap. I can't believe they haven't eaten each other up yet!honestly I doubt they even silver dollar size yet! At least he hasn't been selling very many of them! I know mine at the other store have been going quick.
 
I dunno bruner you could have some problems once after he figures out how to get a full sized piranha to live in a guppy tank. Were all going to have our guppy tanks at work to show off or better yet take them to the park and walk them around.
 
Maybe ill pick em up? I have a extra 20long that I could breed them in next year.start breeding them down in size? Lol pocket piranhas.

You could sell them to all these people who keep trying to keep them in a 20 or 30 gallon!
 
Lmao! It isn't funny but it is! I feel bad for the lul dudes I've even bought mosquitoe fish there before n dumped em right in their tank. He just kinda looks at me funny.I feel like smuggling in some food for em! Lol I'd try to tell him but he's older dude n been keepn fish most of his life so you can't tell him nothing(bout like me Lmmfao!)but the ol coot should know better.he has other predator fish in there actually he won't even carry the normal(wal-mart)(petwarehouses)pet store fish.but yet he runted those rbp babies!poor lil guys!
 
What really BS is I just got a infraction for saying ****! You can say **** on national television but I have to keep it family oriented? Please there isn't no grade school kids here! They say **** on the radio also. Anyhow I won't let the **** happen again as I had no idea I couldn't say **** here on mfk!
