Piranha Breeding

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I hear if you flicker the lights on in the room at night it simulates lightning and the wet season!! :naughty: I do it all the time!!
 
I have 4 rbp in a 55 (soon to go to the 120) and luckily I have two mating pairs and they have bred about a dozen times...I just keep the water clean, feed them well, and if I want them to breed I just do a cold water change to simulate the rainy season and boom I have about 500 eggs in about a week

you must be lucky to have two mating pairs out of 4 rbps. care to post some pics of your setups and the fish? any offsprings? pics please :)

I was thinking about setting up a couple freshwater tank's for discus, and something else kinda unique. I would love to get my hand's on a pair of snakehead's.

snakeheads are cool but since you are in the U.S of A you are out of luck.
what size tank(s) will you be using for freshwater? can give you some ideas depends on the tank size you have.

If discus is your thing you should look at altum angels too.
