The black bubble-eyed fish is most likely another variety of goldfish called the "black moor."
The so-called piranhas are probably silver dollar tetras or something similar. (And those are fairly closely related to piranhas, though they are vegetarian.)
Are the turtles in the same tank as the fish? I'd be surprised if they don't decide to make a meal out of them sometime soon.

I've had fish for over 5 years, and they still haven't died yet :/ It'd be really cool to have a real aquarium and "professional" fish tank, but our fish just sit there. I don't even know if they swim anymore, but they're still alive, because they certainly still eat :I
My friend owns a little mini-pond with large fish in them, like carp or koi or something. THEY'RE pretty cool because they're in a more natural area. sometimes in the summer they can even feed themselves.
Anyway, we're sort of waiting for my to die :P we already have a turtle anyways, and hes going to last for a long while.

Well, the "Pirahanas" are carnivores. While she had them in the same tank, they got into a fight at one point since they were in eachother's way. I didnt see it, but one of them tore the others nose off. Now they are in separate tanks. And about the turtles, they are both in the same tank by themselves. (they are both male, so i dont think im gonna see baby turtles any time soon unless my science teacher gets more.) As for the the black bubble-eyed goldfish, it might be a black moor.

...is that a complaint?
Sort of, yes. They're not very interesting.
And it's a pain to clean both their tank AND my turtle's tank.
It's also sort of amazing how they've lived for so long too, though.
