I currently have 2 Pbass in 180Gal.
A friend is thinking od selling 2 Red bellies w/alot of gold flake coloration (they are a beauty:headbang2)
What do you guys think to have them as tankmates w/my Pbass?
The tank would just be for the 4 of them and maybe a RTC.
All of the fish are the same size right now.
Thanks.
 
I wouln't put them together. It's good they are the same size but sooner or later something is going to die/eatten. The pbass grows a lot quicker than the piranha so its possible 5 months down the lne your pbass would eat the piranhas whole

No!

Not even the same size would work!

More like the piranha taking chunk out of the pbass (and kill it), before the pbass out grow it ;)
 
I wouldn't put piranha with anything, they will eat the fins.
 
i tried it, my vids on youtube.

eventually i removed the pbass, but it did work for a few months. pbass are way to quick for the p's but i jus felt uneasy whenever i wasn't home.
 
at the fs in lebanon they have a 4 ft rtc in with 18" p's and the rtc runs the tank


he is actually being brought to New England aquarium, they are giving him a home
