Hi friends,
I was a fish shop on Friday.
I bought my one pair of fish aquariums.
You tell me if it's Red Piranha?
Would appreciate help

Juvenile pacu, possibly Redbelly Pacu.:)
Probably a red belly pacu it's easy to tell by just looking at it. If you really want to know open its jaw and if you see tiny sharp little teeth it's a piranha but if you see human like teeth it's a pacu.

I used to have 6 3 of each species together and they did fine and I can tell them apart pretty easy.

Attached below is a picture of a jubilee piranha. See he difference?
