here are some recent ones
here's pic of the tank
Plants do ok with pool sand just need a longer period of it to start have nutrient build up under it, but there are better substrate out there that would be more suitable if you are very key on plants. I just didn't have the budget to spend $150-$200 on substrate, so at the time $40 for 200lb pool filter sand seemed more appealing to me. if you have the money then go with eco complete or similar substrate.
you can google "pool filter sand for plants" and see what other says
here are two the links that came up

I got mine from my local Leslies' pool supplies. so check with your local pool supply stores and see what they have. some might be darker color some might be lighter color.
as for trimming plants in a piranha tank, it's really not too dangerous unless you happen to have a crazy mental piranha like the ones in Hollywood films. They are more skittish than most people think and whenever I work on my tank they always try to stay as far from me as possible. if you concern then just keep an close eye to them or use long trimming tools if you don't feel comfortable of putting your hand in water.
THat looks so freaking awesome man. But My tank would be more heavily vegetated. So I guess pool filter isn't for me. I'll have to go with the next best substrate.
Im thing, which is flourite ig uess
