I took a little break from the site due to many reasons, but anyways Im starting another tank with which I wanted to get a manuelli, but unfortunately they are very rare here so Im gonna pick up two gold piranhas that are about an inch right now. They are going into my 75 tank which is going to cycle for about another week... anyone have any advice for gold piranhas?



9x 8" RBP
1x 6" Black Rhom
 
I had always assumed that most piranha care is similiar once you had the basic down of having any type of pygo. Am i wrong? Same with most of the solitary species? Once you get one down, you can handle the rest?

Welcome back :welcome:
 
no takes on what i said? I don't know that for a fact, just thinkin about all of your guy's experiences and what you've shared. IS there a significant difference in keeping any of the pygos or serras?

the care of them are pretty much similar but there are difference in appearance and how they look in the tank.
it depends on you enjoy looking at one fish in a tank or lots of fish in a tank.
 
IMO I'd start with 4-5 n not just 2. Also at 1" I'd keep them(golds)separated till they reach 3"-4" as golds are very cannibalistic when they're small.way worse than rbp.I have a dozen split up myself right now. GL
