Aquarium Fish Piranha

Anyhow, establishing an adult pair can be a little tricky; and you need to keep your eyes on them to ensure that the female doesnt kill the male.

Bacteria and Enzyme Products:

There are liquid and solid commercial preparations that profess to "instantly" or at least more quickly establish nutrient cycling. These sometimes work as labeled, someti
