Identify my pirhana please (pic inside)

so here's one of my babies.. sorry for the bad quality... camera sucks.

but yah... they've got darker spots near the tops of their backs and are all silver

are they red bellied pirhanas? they really don't look like em

thnx in advance,

when i had P's, i boguht them as frys and that P looks like a RBP fry.

 

alright cool..

the guy at the store didn't know what kind it was

 

another quick question:

so there's two of them in this 30 gallon tank.

one is slightly larger than the other... they're both only about 1.5 inches long... the larger one does like to chase the smaller one around a little bit everynow and then... but then they also chill out together as well

should i be worried as i've heard that sometimes they will eat each other?

 

i do know that with fish like P's you need an odd number to keep aggresion lowered.....only thing is that your tank wont be enough for 3 full grown P's, let alone 2 full grown.

 

Maybe a Red Belly?

 

ok u definatly have a red belly
one because the black are very very rare and in some place's ieligal to sell, u will be able to tell with in the next month or so weather it gets red on its bottem fins and as long as u feed them and they arent starved you shouldnt have to much of a problem with them eating each other. and make sure the little one does eat

 

Looks like an RBP to me.
