At the petstore yesterday and they had a nice fish. It is some kind of black piranha but I cant pinpoint wich one. It has a very high back. First one Ive seen in person and I love it. Not shy at all. They got him in a 10 gallon and he will swim right up to your finger. They only have him labled as a Black pirahna just like they have everything else that isnt a red belly. He is about 3-4 inches long. Anyway my question is they want 35 dollars for him. Is that a good price? Also how long could I keep him in a 10 gallon. I have a 55 gallon but I got my reds in there. Could I keep him in my 10 gallon for about a month till i upgrade? Or is that to small? Please let me know ASAP! thanks guys

About a month? should be okay if, like p45 says the tank is cycled or at least you are using an established filter. The price really flucuates on where you are. Here near Portland, Or. I would call it a bit high but not to bad. 2 1/2"ers were $20 yesterday at a lfs. Serrasalmus rhombeus.
One month seems cool, thou keep an eye on him to see if he is stressed out. The price sounds good, depending on your area demand.
Guppy your from salem sweet...Im from Portland, infact i am a police officer in Downtown Portland.... Good to see anouther Oregonite around. About the fish if you have alot of knowledge on paranha and know for sure its a paranha buy it but if your not sure find out first. Ten Gallon, better hurry on that upgrade depending on what size he is now they are dirty fish, a small tank makes for a very dirty tank ive been told...
