Piranha id. help please..

[TbirdJones]

Ok guys, I'm considering buying this guy, but I'm unsure what he is. He looks a bit like a rhom, but I'm far from positive. Any help would be hugely appreciated!

My best guess would be rhom. Nice gold coloration as well

I say juvie Rhom by the body, and head shape.

Thanks guys, I've never seen this coloration on a rhom before. And is it true that only rohms get the red eyes?

 

[SandNukka15]

Rhom.....rhoms eyes will turn red as they age

Nice buy

Thanks guys, but the dude wouldn't send to me because of my state. But aquascape is sending me a "red spilo" tomorrow. Can anyone tell me the difference between red spilos and Ruby red spilos?

 

[SandNukka15]

Of course pedro would still ship piranhas to an illegal state.......if by red spilo you mean red sanchezi then yes they are diff fish
