Merhaba Oliver.

Öncelikle yapmýþ olduðun tanklarý hayranlýkla izliyorum,özellikle "Skull Island - 8.400 Liter" isimli çalýþman harika.
Ben 150*60*60 ölçülerimdeki akvaryumda 19 adet p.nattereri cinsi pirhanha beslemekteyim mevcut akvaryumumda bitki yok ama bitki aðýrlýklý bir akvaryum yapmayý düþünüyorum.CO2 sistem-aydýnlatma-kum dahil herþey hazýr fakat ne tür bitki koyacaðým konusunda kararsýzým.Zemini komple kaplayacak ve mangrov köklerini kaplayacak bitki türü söyleyebilirmisin?Akvaryumda 19 adet piranha olmasi nedeniyle nitrat fazlasý olucak,bu bitkilere zarar verir mi?verirse ne yapmalýyým...

Dear Taner,

thank you for your kind words.

I think keeping Piranha in planted tanks are a great challenge. If you want avoid big water quality problem (like Phosphat/Nitrat) very very  important is a water change frequently, a minimum 30-40% every week. Especially when you feed the Piranhas strong.

For plants covering the wood Microsorum or Anbuia will be a good choice. Maybe also some moss sorts.

For covering the floor: Echinodorus tennellus, Cryptocoryne parva, Cryptocoryne are a good choice for Piranha tanks.

Please take care because of the water temperatur: 26 C and not more! If the temperatur getting over 28 C the Piranhas start to eat the plant to prepare spawning.

Best regards, Oliver Knott
