Arrow Piranha on Steroids

The next time you're diving in your third world eco paradise stream or

lake, just remember, your place in the food chain may get re-shuffled. I

bet things like this reduce the urge to go skinny dipping.--lol

Has anyone even heard of Piranha this big?

That is not something I would want to be face to face with in the water.

OK-Osprey has shown us this is an African Tiger Fish. Thanks for making me look stupid--(just kidding).
Now, the question is, how many of you would think about swimming with one of these bad boys?

I have dove places where the fish like to nibble on your ears, I hope these would not be as up close and personal.
