I have a Red Belly Piranha in a 20 gallon tank with live plants and a shoal of feeder guppies. The guppies started out as 10 feeder guppies and 5 ended up hiding long enough to start reproducing. I had been feeding the piranha raw shrimp which it seems to love, but I noticed that the guppy...

I have 2 tanks in which the plants keep getting knocked loose from the gravel by the fish. Is there a good way to keep them anchored?

Cool thanks. You guys have been more help than any place else I have tried. Is it OK to freeze the bite sized pieces for storage? As I am writing this, he just destroyed one of the feeder minnows in the tank. WOW!

Is it OK to feed a piranha Brine Shrimp?

Thanks again. You guys are really helping me out with my little guy. I have him in a 20 gallon tank. How many can I keep in there?

Thanks guys. I'll try to answer as many of the response questions that I read here. He is about 3 - 4 inches long now. I recently moved him from a 10 gallon tank to a 20 gallon tank so that he has more room to move around. It is since this move that his appetite has seemed to grow...

Thanks. Are there lighting systems kind of like the CO2 systems? I have had aquariums for years, but this is my first venture into live plants.

Thanks. I'll have to look for a higher watt light bulb the next time I go to the pet store.

I'm no troll... I'm just a douche that doesn't know any better. This is my first piranha and I'm a little confused. :unsure:

I have a Nutrfin CO2 system that I installed in my 20 US gallon tank. I initially tried the mixture that came with it and abandoned it in favor of the recipe here. I am currently getting 1 bubble every 3-4 seconds on the ladder but they are still getting stuck on the upper sections of the...

I have a Red-bellied Piranha that I have had for about 3 months now. Recently, I have started feeding him red minnows instead of the typical "feeder comets" from the pet store. In the past three days, he has eaten 10 of the minnows where in the past, he would eat 1 comet every week to 2 weeks...

I have had aquariums for years, but I just started this week with using live plants. Please forgive a newbie, but what exacting is pearling? Also, is it true that live plants will help reduce nitrates and algae formation?

I just bought one of the Nutrafin systems on Tuesday, set it up per the instructions in the box, and it seems to be working OK so far. However, the bubbles seem slow and they seem to be getting stuck on the ladder and congregating into very large bubbles on each layer. Is it possible that I do...

I just bought one of the Hagen systems on Tuesday and it seems to be working OK so far. However, the bubbles seem to be getting stuck on the ladder and congregating into very large bubbles on each layer. Is it possible that I do not have the ladder straight? Also, how hard must your water be...
