Question About Baby Rbp

In my experience (I keep 8 so they school more, but...) yes, this is normal, they should be fine, they do best in schools, and can get stressed out with out a school, I think that’s what lead to my first rbp to die, I had him alone, they are very skittish fish, and they dart around (and follow each other around) the tank a lot, atleast as juveniles, hope this helps, if you have any other questions I’m more than happy to help you out with anything I can!😁

As stated above, should be kept in groups of 3 or greater.

Greater is better 👍

Ok thanks for the info I'll have to look into getting a 60g tan. Right now they are in a 50g. If I add a 3rd fish they won't attack it will they?

Anything is possible with Piranha. They may or may not attack, or get attacked for that matter.

Good luck with your fish!
