Question
Hello,

I was wondering if you know anything about native fish like northern pike, largemouth  bass, walleye, or bluegill? Also, how many red belly piranhas could I keep to adult size in a 120 gallon aquarium?

Answer
Hi Tim;

I really don't know much at all about native fishes kept as pets. Piranhas aren't a fish I know much about keeping either. They are illegal to possess and sell in my state (California). Here is a page with a list of links that may help you with them;
