A little better feeding vid of the Saber and Wolf eating. My daughter Jena helped by being the designated rat pup dropper. :D So here's the video
Produced: by Jena and me. lol! By the way she chose the song. We really wanted Ich Will/by Rammstein, but I couldn't get a pre-edited video to upload to youtube properly so I had to choose from their feable selection. Still it is a kick @$$ song! :grinno:

From the vid, your curupira likes to kick @ss! :D Thanks for sharing. BTW, you may want to put two rat pups in at the same time, next time, because the curupira may hurt the armatus from fighting for the food
 
nice video , lots of action going on

Thanx bro, the Curupira is actually kind of a wuss. lol! He's got torn fins from being smacked up by my 6 inch Bocourti. The Bocourti is actually my most aggressive fish right now. My Lyonsi are so chill it's not even funny, and my Armatus only shows aggression toward the Bocourti. Mostly because the Bocourti is always trying to assert some form of dominance. The 2 rat pup thing I usually do, I just did one at a time for the vid. The Wolf actually bit half the Armatus dorsal when they went for the same pup including the hard primary dorsal ray. It's truly amazing he's almost grown it all back including the hard primary ray is growing back in.

Thanx bro! Gonna take a full tank shot and vid and load them to the photo lounge soon.
 
That Psuedopimoledus Sp. (sp.) is utterly nuts!

I wish i could get Armatus in the UK, regardless of their supposed fragility, I'd love to try and keep one.

Thanks for sharing.
 
hahaha awesome video man, I like the florida gar sticking his nose into everyone's business. They have to be the nosiest fish on earth LOL.

Thanx man, I just wish he'd come out more. You only see him when he does the dash and snatch.lol! I've said it before, but I really am dying to try and get a Apurensis again. I just lost an Armatus from over-eating I think. He took down 3 pools and the next day looked like he got bloat. Sucked I tried to avoid that, but he was just straight pred. alway's managed to dominate the feeders. Caught 3 before anyone else caught one.

Thanx bro. Yeah the florida's a pain always stickin his bent up snout in everything.
:grinno: He's bit me several times during water changes freaks me out cause he's always rubbing against me during water changes so I'm always waiting for that exploratory nip. At least he eats from my hands so at least he personable in that respect.
:D
 
Sweet video! I have a R. Vulpinus and absolutely love watching him swim and eat.

good luck with them.
