Videos of my reds eating a dead tilapia. I would appreciate your opinions if you think I'm doing something wrong here. Do the piranhas seem healthy? Is the color and size right for about 10 months of age?

maybe add some shrimp to their diet, should bring out more red over time.

how did the talapia die? just out of interest?

Thanks for the advice dude. But that's already their staple diet. They had red bellies when they were smaller. Is it normal for them to lose their color when they grow?

Sharp blow to the head with the dull side of a knife. Quick death is better than being eaten alive.

Cool vid. You can add Astaxanthin or Spirulina powder to their diet using the raw seafood. It should help.
