Never trust such fish this video will tell it all.Sorry to all koi lovers including me .It is very tough to see so all those who are fish lovers think it twice.

Re: Pygocentrus nattereri - red belied piranha
Obviously this video shows the aggressive side of piranhas, but one has to appreciate their nature. The environment depicted here is not realistic cause in reality a fish which is healthy and not in a confined space might actually manage to escape, however our poor koi here was confined and heavily outnumbered to survive. I am disappointed by the owner not by the piranhas.

Re: Pygocentrus nattereri - red belied piranha
that;s how they get a bad rap but if you keep them the best way and feed with good food you ll have the best time ever watching them grow.For me is a love even for the future i am thinking of getting the more aggressive species of piranha the black piranha.

Re: Pygocentrus nattereri - red belied piranha
It seems you have much more sense than the guy in the video and I wish you all the luck. I hope you will be able to post some photos soon of any new species you keep. I have to say more than once I was tempted to start keeping them, but I was always a bit scared of them. Having said that they are fascinating and I keep reading and watching videos on them.
