On friday after I cashed my paycheck, I went to a LFS to get some neon tetras to replace those ive lost. Well while just looking around the store i found a 5" male jaguar cichlid, i just had to get him for my female. So after $25, i got him, put him in with her, and BAM they get along great, no fighting, nothing.


Then today i went to a different LFX to just waste some time, well again just browsing around i got some java moss, and just had to have this pure black angel fish, so $11 later, i got the angel fish home, put em into my community tank, and no problems with any of my fish, they all get along nicely.

Then, this coming weekend im buying two 29g full setups from a person i know, and im going to divide up my community tank between the 2 tanks, because today i finally found a store who sells piranhas at a decent price. and would like to get a couple piranhas for one of my 55g tanks.

Yes i know 55 g tanks are a bit small for my jags, and some piranhas. this summer i will be upgrading from my 55g tanks, to two 125g tanks for them, then selling my 55g tanks.

If the store sells piranha on a regular basis, I really wouldn't rush to grab them. Wait until you get the bigger tanks. General rule: Buy the tanks, then the fish!

I gotta tell you, a potential pair of jags plus a school of piranha in a 55g sounds like the start of WWIII to me! Seriously, dude, I think it's a REALLY bad idea...
