I had a power outage on Saturday night and it burned up my last working filter on my 65 gallon piranha tank. It only has one inhabitant a 6" or so red belly. I was worried about the water circulation and unable to afford a filter my brother offered to home him in his 55 gallon tall community tank with a few maybe 4 neons and 4 glofish danio. I'm aware what will happen but spent hours trying to catch them to no avail. Its heavily planted. Well I had gotten large size transport bags from pet smart and a 8" net. He sliced through the bag and net and was almost out the net when I got him in a large pitcher since it was all I had. He's been laying on the one corner since he got in the tank and now I'm kind of worried. I know most piranha are reclusive and it might take him a few days but usually he's swimming around when he's not hanging out in the corner in my tank. Any ideas or am I just worried for no reason?
 
He was making me nervous with no movement so I put the net near him and he's moved but still not very active. :(
