Piranhas and Giant Kissing Gourami: Feeding Secrets Revealed
Piranhas are primarily found in South American rivers and lakes, while giant gourami fish are native to Southeast Asia. These two species do not naturally coexist in the same habitats. However, if we consider a hypothetical scenario where piranhas encounter giant gourami fish, it's important to note that piranhas are known for their aggressive feeding behavior and sharp teeth.
In such a scenario, if piranhas were to target a giant gourami as prey, they would likely employ their typical hunting strategies.
So in my opinion, there is a 3 types of piranhas attack. Which is :
1. Group Behavior: Piranhas often hunt in schools or shoals. By coordinating their movements and attacking as a group, they create a sense of overwhelming force, making it difficult for the prey to escape.
2. Ambush Tactics: Piranhas may lie in wait, concealed among vegetation or near underwater structures, waiting for an opportunity to strike. Once the giant gourami swims within their strike range, they would swiftly attack.
3. Swift Attacks: Piranhas have sharp teeth and powerful jaws, allowing them to deliver quick and forceful bites. They would likely target vulnerable areas of the giant gourami, such as fins or soft tissues.
So what do you think they were using it in this video?
Note : It is worth noting that giant gourami fish can grow to a considerable size and have a robust build, making them less vulnerable to predation by piranhas. Additionally, giant gouramis are omnivorous and can have aggressive behaviors themselves, which could potentially deter piranhas.

Truly awesome in some ways , but not for poor fish . No place to go , or hind. But it certainly educational to understand how piranha seem to plan their attack , taking little bites at first , before big feeding frenzy at end .

Thank you for watching and sharing your thoughts! I appreciate your concern for the fish. The feeding process shown is a natural behavior for piranhas. Also i'm stimulating my piranhas to stay sharp.
they seem to start tearing off bits of the prey's tail. to slow it down?

It's a Osphronemus goramy Lac. In some country in Asia (i believe continent you came from) this species of gourami are bred and raised for huge scale human consumption. Thanks for watching!
How about putting a fish in there that bites back
