	Are you interested in piranha species? If so this is the site for you. I have dedicated this site to piranha lovers ...
		The Serrasalmus nattereri or the red piranha is the piranha that is in most peoples minds when they think of piranhas.
		The serrasalmus niger or fl piranha is one of the most aggressive of the piranhas and is rarely found in pet stores.
		The serrasalmus rhombeus grows to be 12-14 inches which puts it near the top as far as large piranhas.

	Reference - Legal Status Of Serrasalmus nattereri - Red Piranha in the USA.
		Generally speaking, for all other US states, the keeping of this fish is perfectly legal because the temperature in local waters is too low to for the fish to breed or survive.
		Serrasalmus nattereri can vary greatly in colour and juveniles forms differ considerably from the adults therefore positive identification can be difficult.
		Serrasalmus nattereri may sometimes labelled as a pacu or incorrectly as another legal species.

		The same applies to Serrasalmus spilopleura: this species may actually be a complex of similar species with subtle differences in shape, color and locality (for example, in the pet trade, some specimen are sold as Gold Spilopleura, others as Purple Spilopleura, obviously because of their coloration).
		Serrasalmus elongatus: Elongated Piranha, Pike Piranha, Pingke Piranha, Serrasalmus pinke, "Caribe Pinche"
		It is suspected that (certain?) Serrasalmus species release a certain kind of hormone into the water, thus signalling that the fish is ready to spawn and thus lowering agression levels.

	Piranhas - Serrasalmus rhombeus

	About Genus Serrasalmus (Linnaeus 1766)
		It is based on the oldest species, the type genus Serrasalmus which was formerly the type genus of the family.
		A new Serrasalmus species recently discovered in Venezuela is believed to eat plants (Machado, 2003), but at this time, the species remains un-described and unnamed.
		The number of species nominated, the difficulty in examining the types, which are spread out among various museums and countries of Europe, America, the loss of type specimens and the lack of good descriptions has been a hindrance for the study.

	Serrasalmus sanchezi
		Photos used by TFH (Tropical Fish Hobbyist Publications, Inc.) of piranhas spawned at Fleischman Memorial Aquarium were erroneous and do not represent this species as originally believed by me. More detail on this erroneous mistake is noted here.
		I began testing behavior on 3 species of piranhas in genera Pygocentrus and Serrasalmus on March 5, 2005.
		By elimination, one is brought to a new type, all the while regretting to clutter an already difficult genus.

		Since all of these fish should be kept solitary, and they have similar dietary requirements, most hobbyists never know the difference.

	Serrasalmus geryi, Violet-line Piranha
		My opinion rests on this preamble, Serrasalmus species should be continued to be maintained as a single solitary species in the home aquarium.
		But I remain convinced that keeping various species of Serrasalmus species together, to include same species, is a not a good idea because of the potential of serious injuries to the fish.

	piranha behavior
		When you first buy your piranha and put them in their new tank, they may act very wild and bash into the tank, or even play dead, dont worry, this is normal for newly bought piranhas.
		The best way to determine what specie the fish is, is to figure out what genus it is either Pygocentrus or Serrasalmus which is quite easy to do all you have to look at is the head and whether its concave or convex.
		Concave means it is a Serrasalmus and convex means it is a Pygocentrus.
