i want to get a black pirhana are they as vicious as everybody claims2007-11-24 23:36:50Answers:

No, not at all. The vicious stories of pirahnas we've all seen and hear usually come from fish that are locked into a small water area, with no food, the fish then slowly starve and devour anything that comes near. Pirahnas are not nearly as violent as you might think. And, in fact they are pretty boring, often just hovering in one spot, without doing much of anything. Even in a 180 gallon, they're pretty docile and calm.

I think it's illegal to own a pirhanna. But if you get one, stick a finger in the water and post the results.

Very viscious little monsters

Pirhanas if alone or few in numbers are unlikely to be vicious as everybody claims and as seen on television. It is usually only if they are kept in large schools of 20 and above that they will come to that type of feeding frenzy.
