The Red Bellied Piranha will only accept meat. Flakes are rarely touched and do not provide the correct nutrition. Earthworms and beef heart will also be eaten. Do not hand feed these fish as a quick trip to the hospital may be the result.
Make sure everything in your tank eats well or it can corrupt the environment if the red bellied piranhas do not eat well they will eat your other fish even the oscar if it has to.
