The piranha varies in color from species to species, but most have olive green or blue black scales on their backs and dark to silver gray sides and bellies. They have an oversized mouth with prominent teeth. These teeth are so sharp that they can cut through bone. The teeth are triangular and flat with needle pointed tips. The teeth in the upper jaw are smaller than those in the lower jaw and the lower jaw protrudes.
