hmmm a pirana pond sweet as long as you dont fall in :P
 
LETS GET SOMETHING STRAIGHT, IF YOU DID FALL IN YOUR P POND, ALL YOU WOULD DO IS SCARE THE CRAP OUT OF YOUR P'S, YOU ARE A MAMMAL, THEY ARE FISH EATERS, THERE HAS NEVER BEEN A DOCUMENTED CASE OF P ATTACK HUMAN, CEPT THAT STUPID 70'S MOVIE :swear: MISCONSEPTION IS WHY THEY ILLEAGAL

a p pond is a great idea, doesnt have to me anything fancy, heck a 50 dollar wallmart swimming pool hold 1200 gallons of water, you could put 60 p's in there

check this out, if you have bearshare, im putting a piranah documentary up, all p newbies should check it out, he swims with p's, no bites!

movie called Piranhas_with_Nigel_Marven

bearshare is a peer to peer networking program, you can download it for free, some consider it a spyware program so download at your own risk.....but the movie is the best ive seen on P

Not quite true, there are many documented cases of piranha attacks, they are minor and usually result in shallow circular scars, National geographic had several pics over the years. You might startle the fish enough to bite and you might lose a mouthful or two of you but all you would have to do is hop back out of the pond. Also I saw several B+W movies showing piranha attacks including a Tarzan one in Africa (I think the fish commute) so you can't blame that one stupid movie, at least they don't fly, lol.

As is visible in this picture, the snapping piranha made a semi-circular bite on the girls palm, but fortunately didn't remove a chunk of flesh. Perhaps 10 years old at the most, the girl did not cry or fuss, but paddled her canoe across the river to have her mother wrap a strip of cloth around the wound. A short time later, we returned with, and applied antibiotic cream and proper bandaging material.

Hey Guppy, I was wrong, those definatly look like p bites on the guys leg, much larger than what my p have done, but they leeve that same bite pattern on their food. I suppose if they are hungry enough they are not too fussy. like most wild animals

i think the half moon is from the bottom jaw

still hate that movie, but do respect the rest of your post, those are definatly p bite marks, frickin huge ones too

It was a very dumb movie, the sequel (with the flying piranha) was at least funny.
 
Here is what would be cool for those of you with appropriate climate:

Make a pond outside your house, but right next to the house's foundations. Saw a hole in the foundation, say 6-7' x 2' (much like for a window) and put a glass on the hole. This becomes the viewing window from your basement, at eye level with the fish. Then all you need is a nice biotope setup and a bunch of p's and you're all set...

I would pay to see this lol
 
I think its a good idea, but everyone is right god forbid a child got hurt in the pond. And to Oddball, I am glad you won the case. Thats messed up what the illegal guy did and running from the cops. God forbid someone went on "your" property and over "your" fence and got hurt on "your" pond, makes it your fault lol. Damn I am kinda rethinking the pond building in my backyard lol. Nah hehe. I think i am gonna put and electric fence and a sign that says climb at your own risk in all languages lol. J/K sounds like a good idea though. But I will probably have to check on the laws here to see the depth i am allowed to have on "my" own property, cause i want a pretty big and deep pond =).
