piranha choices

[klink67]

Well now that I found out that I cant order exodons unless I want to pay ridiculous prices, I am back to getting a piranha. I am looking at getting a single extremely aggressive piranha. The only thing is that ity has to be able to be kept in a 40 gallon tank for life. So far I am between a purple sanchezi and a ruby red spilo. Are there any other small piranha? Which do you guys prefer a sanchezi or a spilospleura?

You shouldn't give up so quickly.

Well I just called aquascape and they are shipping me my ruby red tomorrow. I will grow it out in my aquapod then transfer it to a 40 breeder. I went with this choice because it seemed to be the only small agressive piranha plus the color is amazing on these.

Why is everyone voting for the ruby red?

40 gallon for life? aggressive? Serrasalmus irritans...

My ruby red was not cheap at all. I cant find an irrittans even if I wanted one.
