 Piranhas July 9, 2008
The best book of Piranhas, it has new information and is more complete than the first edition. I really recomend this book to the Piranha Hobbist and to the person that wants to see them in the wild.

The new addition is by far the most accurate resource for someone interested in the various species of piranha. The pictures are amazing and the information is very accurate.
Great for a beginner October 9, 2005

Whether you're interested in learning about piranhas for your own enlightenment or starting your own piranha tank, this book is great. There's a little information on most different types of piranhas and a lot of general information for piranha care. The author also goes into detail of his own experiences with piranhas in their natural environment.

there isnt any information in here that anyone who has kept a successful fish tank wouldnt already know, and it seems like none of then info is specific to piranhas. he doesnt go over what size tanks piranhas need, or that they dont like a lot of light, or that they need a heater guard to prevent them from breaking it, or that they can chew through air hoses. seems like a basic fish keeping book plus 2 chapters on piranha history and species.
this book has lots of info July 18, 2002
