Small flesh-eating fish (7)

I believe the answer is:

piranha

(Other definitions for piranha that I've seen before include "Ferocious fish" , "Efficient flesh remover" , "Small carnivorous freshwater fish" , "Voracious eater" , "fish chewed up" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
