Thanks Innes; I think his colour is compliments of the krill he eats every few days. I realise he would like some companions, but there are a couple of reasons he doesn't have any yet. One reason is that Jeff is moving here in the spring and hasn't decided yet if he's going to ship his piranhas to me before he comes. If I set up a much bigger tank now so I could add some and have a shoal of them with Carnage, we'd end up with two great big piranha tanks. I have quite a few other tanks, and there's no way we'll have room for two 75 or 90 gallon tanks of rbp's. The other thing is, like I said, I'm not sure how old he is nor if he's going to do much growing for me because of the treatment he received (or didn't receive) from his previous owner. I'm afraid that if I got him into a larger tank with some other rbp's, that they'd soon out-grow him and then kill him. If he continues to do well for me and he grows, AND Jeff decides not to ship his piranhas here, then I will definitely get him some friends. If not, at least I know he's being well fed and has clean water, which is more than could be said for the poor lil guy's previous arrangements.Innes said:Aquanut - piranhas do repair themselves in amazing quick time if given the right conditions, and also your P has a lovely colour, I would reccomend getting a couple of other pygos as they do like being in groups
I do not believe adding other P's will be the problem you suspect, but good luck with it B)AquaNut said:Thanks Innes; I think his colour is compliments of the krill he eats every few days.
