Piranhas typically reproduce by laying eggs. A female can lay hundreds to thousands of eggs in shallow water, which are then fertilized by the male. The eggs hatch into larvae, and the young piranhas, known as fry, are vulnerable and require protection from predators until they grow larger. Parental care varies among species, with some parents guarding the eggs and young fry.
