Aquascape piranha stock, pics

I just got a 5" Xingu and a 3" Gibbus from Pedro a couple weeks ago. The Xingu is awesome. Looks really nice in the aquarium and is mean and very territorial. Not skittish. Acts different from most of the Peru Rhoms.

The Gibbus(when young) looks just like a black piranha but its a little more elongated. You may notice tints of yellow around the belly. Its a very aggressive fish. Mine is less skittish than the Peru blacks I have of the same size.

I will, I have the Xingu in a temporary tank right now I am in the process of setting up its new 72 gallon. The fish also roughed up its tail fin in the container during shipping, I wanted to let it heal totally before posting pics.
