You've got some mean looking fish. I like the spilo.

Not totally sure, but the biggest caribe (1st pic) may have a tummy full of eggs, but i'll just have to wait and see.

Spats?

Have you tried frozen garden worms?

Dig them up, clean off the soil, then wack them into the freezer in an ice cream container.

Snap bits off as required

My clown loaches and angels love them

Sprats are small marine fish around 6".

I forgot to mention that i also feed them live earthworm as i have a big supply of them.

I just noticed you have a Plec in with your Piranhas. What type? Does he get along with them (do they harm him)?

its a 13" Hypostomus plecostomus-common plec.

It gets on fine with the piranha, although sometimes there has been a very small section of its tail fin that has been bitten, but it grows back very fast. It does sometimes 'freak out' the piranha when its on the move (min of 6" size difference) and sometimes swims after them aswel, showing a bit of aggression.
