Since when were cheap petsmart koi, JDs, and silver aros high end fish?

If I ever get another armatus I hope one day to feed him his natural prey....Piranhas!!!! I think that would be an ironic twist!

In nature he would survive. A pack of Ps would never attack an adult healthy armatus. They'd never catch him for one. Yeah if he was sick or injured they will eat an armatus. I ve seen fisherman use 8" P. caribe in Venezuela to catch monster armatus!

Piranhas are the bluegill of the Amazon and are preyed upon by most larger fish and used as bait by fisherman.

i dont c the big deal here....a crappy minnow is a live fish so is arowana.....if a guy has the money to feed his red bellies a arowana then its no different than u feeding ur fishes feeders
Thing is the pihranas were nibbling it into tiny pieces while something like a guppy would be gone in 2 bites

good idea
but alittle harsh

there should be a animal cruelty law or something

I have to ask... why is it more cruel to feed, say, a short bodied clown loach or a baby asian aro to a P. than it is to feed a goldfish to one?
Other than the money.

An asian aro is not worth any more then a little comet goldfish to me, they're all living, breathing creatures who all feel pain, and have a righ to live, not be used as something to put on a show while it fights for it's life in a glass box where escape if impossible, for long at least...
 
well if u see the title dont watch it for 1
2 its silly+and a wast of money
3 ive seen "PIRANHA" (lol) eat a nice size panngassie catfish about 11-12" i dint like it 2 be fair but no 1 said it was good thatw as saying all stuff like thats a wast of about $75 about £40-£50 were i am its dafft i think mabey about 10 guppys in there or 2 -5 feeders but i agree about the aro it makes u mad when people wast a nice big fishes life if he didnt want it he should of sold it but ive been thinking about piranhas but i dont no ive got nothing agenst piranhas but i fined it sad how people recore it and kill a nice big fish for fun i bet if we put them in a tank with 50 big red bellys they wouldnt like it if u think about it its crule/sad and sick
