Product Details
Red-bellied piranhas are red on their undersides from chin and cheeks to belly. The head and body are various shades of gray; their sides are flecked with bright silver scales. The piranha's distinctly rounded and snub-nosed profile serves a function.
Beneath the high forehead are powerful muscles that attach to a short, stout lower jaw fitted with triangular, razor sharp teeth, which interlock neatly with a matching set above. This design allows piranhas to bite down with incredible force and shearing ability. However, these formidable teeth are not usually visible, being covered by thick, fleshy lips.
They can grow to be a little over a foot long (30.5 centimeters) and weigh up to 4 pounds (1.81 kilograms).
Red-bellied piranhas are found throughout the low elevation regions of the Amazon River basin. They inhabit both still and moving sections of the vast fresh-water Amazon River basin system.
Food/Eating HabitsIn the wild, a good portion of their diet consists of fins nipped from the tails of larger fish. Additional items on a piranha's menu can include bits of flesh, whole small fish, insects, aquatic invertebrates and occasionally, plant material in the form of figs and other ripe fruit.
At the Smithsonian's National Zoo, red-bellied piranhas receive a gelatin diet (a mixture of greens, proteins and micronutrients in a gelatin base), smelt, shrimp, herring and earthworms.
