View Full Version : fahaka murdering crayfish
well after hearing about how puffers love crayfish i bought a couple and threw them in the tank. so he finily took one out and riped its head open and my tank literly exploded with yellowish fluffy brain matter i guess, its everywere. is this normal? i didnt think it would be so messy.

well what do u expect to happen?
When bass eat a caryfish, it is just gone. Depends on the size of the mouth I guess.

When a puffer eats, they make as much mess as possible, you should see guts blowing out of the puffers gills, mine does it all the time. Keep feeding crayfish or even clams in a shell, frozen ones, they need to wear down the teeth.

i use to feed my fahaka fiddler crabs, it was always awesome to watch because the crab had no where to run but tried it's hardest to get away....The fahaka would bite out the back of it's head, let it walk around alittle then finish it off.. Making a mess is the best part.:thumbsup:
