im cycling a 75 gal and and wanted to know what yall think about which should have the tank, im really into both but i only have one tank open so i have to decide, help me out:nilly:
 
since you post it in the piranah forum I'd say Branditt.
 
Brandtii dont come around too often. One of the less shy piranhas. I'd go with that.
 
go with the piranha for sure, plus Brandtii are such a cool species
 
your guna get extremly biased results cause this is in the piranha forum if it were me id go for the brandtii

For a 75g I'd say go with a parachromis of some sort. A brandtii is really rad, but a paracrhomis fills out a 75g better...

Oh BTW...as far as parachromis are concerned you could probably do any species except dovii. Dovii get too big for a 75g. Also a male jag could get up to 20" so you could have to upgrade. I would go with a freddy myself...
 
:headbang2do you think the brandtii will use the whole 75gal, i like piranhas better but i just dont want it to face the wall all day long you know
 
yeah they get about 12" but it takes serrasalmus piranhas years to get that big, like 3 years to get 6+ then probably 10 years to reach 12" if Brandtii's grow like rhoms...
