Description

Speckled Spilo Piranha Serrasalmus Spilopleura Tapojos 10cm

“Introducing the captivating Speckled Spilo Piranha (Serrasalmus Spilopleura Tapajos), a striking and vibrant addition to any advanced aquarist’s collection. Originating from the Tapajos River in Brazil, these Piranhas boast stunning speckled patterns and vibrant colors that set them apart.

Feeding these Piranhas involves a carnivorous diet comprising primarily of live or frozen meaty foods such as feeder fish, shrimp, and other protein-rich fare. Their voracious appetite and predatory nature make feeding time a spectacle, best suited for experienced fish enthusiasts.

Known for their territorial behavior and aggression, these Piranhas are best housed alone or in a spacious tank with individuals of similar size and temperament. Tank mates should be carefully chosen, considering their compatibility and ability to withstand their aggressive tendencies.

Their high aggression level demands a seasoned aquarist’s attention and expertise in maintaining a suitable environment. Adequate tank space, hiding spots, and meticulous water quality management are essential. Keep water parameters pristine with a pH range of 6.0-7.0 and a temperature between 75-82°F.

In summary, the Speckled Spilo Piranha is a captivating yet challenging species, best suited for experienced aquarists seeking the thrill of keeping these fascinating predators in a well-prepared and carefully managed aquarium environment.”
