I have never been a big fan of piranhas, but I do believe that I remember hearing that piranhas are actually a very social fish that need to be in a group to be happy. I also believe I remember that they are a shy fish, especially if kept alone.

At the very least, I've bumped your thread so hopefully somebody that's knowledgeable about piranhas can jump in on it. :D

A friend of mine had three (8-9") red breasted in a 90 gallon. No fighting problems. He did have some real plants in there too, but the fish tended to uproot them every once in a while.
