    As someone who has kept both redbelly and violet piranhas, I can confirm that they are not only extremely docile but will actually run and hide when you approach the tank. I actually get more nervous about losing a finger when I clean my Amazon pufferfish tank.

      Years ago, I was at the woodland Park zoo in Seattle, and I happened to walk through the tropical fish and amphibians type area right as they were feeding the piranhas. I tell ya... the kids were SCREAMING. I just turned to my wife, and said "dang that trout got it's face ripped off and it's still choochin". Whichever zoo keeper decided to dump live trout in the piranha tank right as that gaggle of kids went by? They're my hero, it was some of the funniest stuff I've ever seen.

    When I was a child my father told me the story of the cow-eating piranhas. I never heard it came from a book written by an American ex-president. In my father's story, when the locals wanted to cross the river they had to sacrifice a cow to make the fish go to a separate area. From seeing their behaviour in fish tanks, I knew the piranhas' reputation was a bit exaggerated or that maybe in the wild they formed massive schools. Anyway, thank you for explaining where all that came from.

    I'm not a scientist by any means. I have a close friend from Brazil. He's from Sao Paulo and has family that lives in more rural areas around the Amazon. Fishing communities. From what I understand, there are numerous species of pirhana. The Amazon River is the most bio diverse amongst pirhana. Behaviors vary amongst all pirhana species. Although the pirhana's reputation is largely exaggerated, the locals from Amazonian regions are still cautious of pirhana. I thought that might be worth noting? 🤷‍♀️ If you go visit a new place, do as the locals do. Lol.
