Nice shots.One thing I like to see when I feed mine feeders is when they catch a fish and hold it in their mouths you can sometimes see the blood seeping out from where the fish is impaled on the fangs.

eye-ballin about 8 inches Yeah should have video'd it instead though. My LFS has large goldfish about 3-4 inch mark love watching the Arm's go at a big fish like that, muy impressive! Lol! I've been feeding them pool goldfish and small texas cichlids. Trying to give them a varied diet. Funny the LFS is calling me TCM(Texas Cichlid Massacre) as nick-name. Ever since I came in and bought 20 and they asked me why I was buying so many and I told them to feed to my Arm. Know every time I walk in there they start yellin hurry and hide the Texas Cichlids TCM's back.
"Hurry Hide the Texas Cichlids"If you feed a different species, isint that still the same diet...Live? I would try to get them on Scallops, shrimp, Massivore pellets, krill and if you can sneak in some type of veggies. Or you can be a Pro like Vamp and add Diet Pills to the Shrimp to get him Buff
I started mine on krill then Market Shrimp. Once he took down M/S, I would let the other food sit in diced M/S over night with some water and toss it in the tank... Once on Market Shrimp, everything else was so easy it felt like cheating
Thanx alot for the tip. I love watching them eat live, but my number one priority is their health. Plus it's not practical or economically feasible(Lol!!) to always feed them live. Wonder if I can try the same thing with my Scombs. I really hope I can avert the sudden death syndrome that's plagued these guys in the hobby for so long. A peaceful Vamp would rock!!
