as many of you know on 4-20-12 I bought a baby .5" rhom, in two months it grew to 2.3" then died 6-3-12, got a new .5" baby that same day, and he is now 3" and doing great!

I preserved him with isopropyl alcohol and some substrate, he was in the freezer for 4 months....

Haha obviously you have little experience with piranhas and rhoms. Pretty much how they look at juvies, and being in freezer for 120 days didn't help!

Do you realise how many biologists and researchers use this method? The 94% alcohol preserves the fish much better then the freezer ever could...

This is actually a good comment! Thx

Won't make much of a difference. Done nicely bro. Atleast you don't have to look at pictures when you miss it. ;D

Sorry that I'm not interested in piranhas, I'm interested in the rbps main predator in nature though.
 
I'm not interested in starting an argument, this is a friendly forum, but piranhas aren't really as aggressive and vicious as they're cracked up to be. I tried piranhas a long time ago, they're cowards.
 
I have a good idea, lets completely derail the thread and start and argument! fish 042099 you're first...
