Armatus like to linger near the bottom which is bad news

Rays and fish look great!!

Thanks Trev. They are learning just like the VATF did. They will go to the bottom and pick Tilapia off but only when the rays arent close.
I have watched that short clip multiple times in slow motion and you can clearly see that the front Armatus was watching the ray closely. He moved almost at the precise moment that the Leo did. Like it anticipated the ray's attempt.
 
Armies taking and hitting night crawlers.....pics suck but was hard to get decent ones.

thats awesome!

ITs funny to see them side by side to the geo's. probably <12 months, they will be big enough to EAT those geos.

Not growing fast enough, just saved my largest Armatus (10-11 inches) from under a pile of rays. Roughed up and eyes clouded over but still alive....they truely are cold blooded, dont want share any tank space:)
 
Hope he makes it for you. My 200+ cichlids have been whittled down to maybe 40 lol. They actually barely eat the tilapia now as they seem to prefer the hunt.
 
Been a few months since I updated these guys..............All doing well together!
