no red belly........

[aniketvaze74]

Hey,

i have 4 red belly piranha's in my 50 gallon. I feed them cichlid pelets, krill and the ocasional live fish (silver barbs, convicts, etc.) however one of them never really had much of a red underside but now completly lost its's red on it's underside. Is this normal? there at about 3 inches...

they will get more of a red tint to their belly when they are older.

its good that they are on pellets but i dont think cichlid pellets are right for them. try carnivour pellets

Maybe stressed? Potentially just a phase.. Are you upgrading in the future?
