I have one Pleco and two armoured Cat fish in with my RBPs. I also have a dozen Zebra Danios. A few come up missing from time to time. The Pleco and the Cat fish have lots of plants and wood to hide in and amongst.

Im in the midst of upgrading to a 75 gallon tank...Currently have 3 RBP's around 5-6 inches. Might add 1 or 2 more to them who knows. I plan on adding wood and thick plants in there for catfish im thinking of adding. What are some good catfish to add inthere? Would pictus work?

Hi guys.I'm from South Africa and keeping Piranha here is illegal without a license but I wanted to try and get some-speeding is illegal too and I do it all the time.My question: Can I keep piranha with Zambezi Sharks?
I have 2 jack dempsy and 2 wolf fish and 1 oscar and 2 snails and 1 irrdesent shark with my piranha
I feed mine every day and they still attack live stuffPlecos work well as long as they are a few inches bigger than the ranhas. There is stll the risk of death though.
good info. i have a RBP and wanted to find a tankmate for it. so i already had an oscar and a jack in my tank so i decided to try adding the piranha. and to my surprise they get along great. they chase eachother around for a second and then go about thier business. so this is one trail and error that worked out in my favor. so i have had luck with the jack and oscar with a piranha.
