Here are a few pictures of my rbps so far. Am proud to say they are all still alive all 5 of them :headbang2 I decided that i wanted to move them to a better tank to suit them so moved them to my 100cm x 50cm x 50cm tank, and provided them with nice hiding places and space to move so we will see in the next few days :D

looking good, but what is attached to the outlet of your power head?

Its a make shift current reducer lol :D because it only has setting and that is tidal wave setting so with that L shaped pipe i made it reduces the current a lot and the rbps seem to like but without that L shaped pipe they are continuously swimming against it, i read in the piranha info sticky they like a good water current just not sure how strong without that L shaped pipe if they stop swimming they end up being taken to the other side of the tank very quickly.
 
Just another quick update, I just fed my rbps a nice big piece of fish fillet which they ate straight away and after i noticed that they are all schooling together swimming all over the tank and playing in the wall of bubbles all together they have never done this before. Never seen them this happy lol its amazing to watch :D

Ah well at the end of the day i owe thanks to you all :D cause you can only gain so much knowledge from reading IMO but when you get advice from people who have done this before you gain a lot more knowledge and then doing as advised you gain the experience :headbang2

So big thanks for all the help :D
