In Reply to: Red bellied piranha ? posted by Tony1 on February 03, 2003 at 22:12:28:

:I have had this guy for about a year now and i noticed that he doesnt have much of a red bellie. I got him when he was just a little thing and now he is almost 6inchs. Is there something wrong with him, where is all his color. Is there anyway to get some color in him? Thanks

Typical tank raised P, they lose alot of color due to water conditions (missing minerals etc.). Try some black water tonic and keep close eye on pH. Should be around 7.0 for better color.
