i have 10 3inch pirayas in my tank... and i LOVE them...theyre a bit shy at times but as soon as the shrimp hits the bottom they massacre it! cant wait till they get bigger...
 
I totally disagree, i think that they are extremely aggressive it depends on what you are feeding them, i use deer meat.

venison? seriously? How many white tail deer do you think there are roaming around the amazon? :screwy:

My dogs eat spinach when it hits the floor, does that mean I should feed them spinach?

I'll tell you guys what. How 'bout we put a 14" snakehead in the tank with all these bad ass piranhas and then see who's aggressive.

Do u guys buy piranhas to show off for your friends or what?! And before you buy a fish, find INFORMATION about it before you buy it so you wont be disapointed. I think that the reason that your piranhas isnt so agressive as you wish it would be, is that it is very hard to simulate their natural environment. For example they should be in a shoal of at least 100 or more individuals. Thats impossible to do at home. But if u have like 10 piranhas, provide them with hidingplaces and just handle them right they will not be as shy as yours are.
If u buy a piranha for "showing-off" I would recommend u to think again. In my opinion it´s the hunger that is making them agressive, they dont kill for fun.


I dissagree. The first time i kept piranhas i begun with 2 reds. i used to feed them gold fish and then I decided to give them 100 2" ot 2.5" goldfish so when they felt hungry just went an fed having in mind not to throw them more food for, maybe a week....they lasted one day. the reds used to kill just for the sake of it at the end i had to retire all the half eaten remains of the poor fish.

To the OP..

Why would you come into a forum and insult the fish that everyone in this area keeps..

thats got to be the dumbest thing i have ever heard of.. And i do believe you must have been looking to start arguments..

I wont comment on anything else except.. give me your biggest baddest fish.. say 15" and smaller and i will feed him to my 9" brandtii.. Thats right.. i said feed him to my fish.. I make very bold statements and have all the knowledge to back it up.. The debate on whether or not piranhas kill for fun obviously has 1 party that havent even had any sort of piranha.. Like cichlids serras will attack other fish then enter their territory, so what is your definition of the world fun?
 
Saying piranhas are overrated would equal saying lions are overrated.

The male lion does nothing he ain't a ferocious hunter who has the job done is the female, moreover lions like to steal the preys of other predators....

When you see the lion eating a buffalo and a bunch of hienas near by it is because the lion took their prey away... pretty far from the holywood image of the "king of the jungle" ain't it?.

If talking about who wins a match a rihno or an elefant could kick the **** out of any lion don't you think?, despite lion is the "King of the Jungle".....

You have to get informed firts. maybe piranhas are not the meanest predatory fish of them all but it doesnt mean they are not a ferocious spicies and potentially dangerous even to humans.

I wouldnt change my pygo shoal for any other fish and if given tha case It would be a wolf fish, this fellow could kick the **** out of any snakehead or any cychlid for sure but Ii am not keeping piranhas just to show off saying i keep the meanest bloodthisty fish of them all....



Cheers.
