ive seen on an episode of fear factor where they had to dive into a tank full of pinanha, my mom was freaking out about it, i was like pfffffff their too scared to even attack, no piranha eats the second you dump it in a tank.

If they let em acclimate i bet its a different story. . :devil: . .

Wasnt that a bunch of Pacus?

Much like me!
 
I WOuld have to say that, before my RED Bellies caught Ick and croked on me, they were pretty aggressive when they needed to eat, but they always hid and i could stick my hand in the tank to clean it with no worries. After that I went to my local pet store (best in the world) and got a big oscar, had him for awhile thought he was mean as :swear:, year and a half later introduced a smaller red devil and he calls the oscars bluff like no other. :hitting:
 
ive got a red belly bout 6 inches and its the biggest pussy ive had. the damn thing wont even eat while im watching it. wtf

Have you looked in a mirrow lately?
 
Piranha are not "over rated". Overly hyped, perhaps, but not over rated.

People who enjoy piranhas don't like them for their aggression, because in most circumstances, they are not outright killers.

Don't just bash fish because you can't appreciated them.
 
If you think red devils are nasty buy your -self a10inch dovii i have never seen a fish lock jaws turn the fish upside down still locked up and do crazy stuff like that in a fight . I have had cichlids along time and never seen a fish like this beast also at this size they will bite your hand ant they have teeth big ones
