I had 6 red belly p's they dont do much but sit there they do not interact much nor do they do much of any thing stick with just the exodons.

yea i think ill stick with a large shoal of exodons since i need a permit for piranhas anyway

black rhombeuses arent exactly cheap...

Considering that one fish will be your entire bill for stocking the tank they are reeasonable. Plus they don't exactly breed like guppies or convicts...

I got the general idea by looking at your older posts btw, not grasping at limbs or trying to insult you. I'm not at all a billionare fish keeper and would of never bought the ones I have.
 
Not all reds act stressed out all the time like his.with proper care rbp will be calm, happy fish. I personally don't care what you keep but you might read lil more bout NY fish laws because there's a good chance exxodons might be on that list also.
 
Blk rhoms aren't cheap?you can buy a blk rhom for 15-30$!sure big ones are more but exspensive I don't think so!like JP's blk diamond rhom 12"+-350$ (that's a huge fish)compared to my 200$ Gatf at 5" when I bought him. Sure if you buy a 8"+ rhom from a dealer your gonna pay dearly for it. But there's deals out there too. Hell a baby rhom almost as cheap as the exxodons your keeping.
 
i know we're beyond this part of the subject but next time i go to portland i'll take a couple of pics of the tank where they're keeping small piranhas with exodons. I assume it's probably just temp arrangement and they move the piranhas as they outgrow the exodons but it's still cool to see
