do we have any piranha people on here?

Hey ofa, does yours tailslap you? mine didn't before but he has become considerably more aggressive since he is alone now. I have been the victim of that many time recently. I have seen him tail slap and break my thermometer and crack my heater, he has completely tore up all my fake plants. Its funny cuz one day I'll see him run into a hard plant leaf, then the next day the exact same leaf will be floating, just clipped right off....

On the contrary, RBP's are very shy and skittish, they haven't really bit me (with the exception of one time early on when I was being stupid lol) I can practically move him with the gravel vac now, its quite comical

I know they wont eat it :duh: I've had no qualms about putting my hand in the tank, so I know allready that they are usually nice, but its funny the first time you get tailslapped :eek: I was shocked that he did that then I wanted to filet him, then I just accepted it (three step program). All in all, I wish I had the money\tank size to get a black rhom at the time, but we'll see what happens soon.

I feed him every three days and pretty much everything. They took down a large pleco a little while back. He now eats june bugs, earthworms, lettuce, cucumber, beefheart, floating cichild pellets, shrimp.....etc....I am forgetting some but I think its mainly all in that thread.

thats cool.. god ****.. my reds r so effing picky.. they wont eat sh*t... all they eat is fish, and shrimp... they hate pellets, beef heart, beef, chicken, and all that... i never tried leetuce or anything.. but maybe i will try sometime..

i want a single red like u thats seem prtty cool and stuff.. but idk.. tank might b small.. what size is it agian?
 
Mine is a 29g right now, I just bought a 55g for him that will go through a cycle soon. He is ok for now, only about 6 inches. The lettuce\cucumber idea is very tricky. you HAVE to use a vegi clip since it floats. and I had to turn all lights off and wait. I was patient enough to wait 5 days before feeding him. he wouldn't eat that stuff until the 4th or 5th day.....Its nice to just water the garden and go pick some earthworms out. Try those, its safe and free! They should like those, my RBP just attacks when I toss them in there. Any wounded bugs or insects go in the tank pretty much. As far as rats and mice, never do it. It clouds your water very bad, clogs your filter and messes up ur tank chemistry pretty bad.
