More about Spilo

It has a distinctive silver-gray body complemented by unique black spots and stripes, giving it a striking appearance. Originating from South American rivers, the Spilo is a well-recognized species among aquarium enthusiasts and piranha collectors. Its aggressive nature and distinctive look make it a popular choice for experienced fish keepers, but it's not as widely known to the general public compared to the more famous Red-Bellied Piranha.
