Just outta curiousity do you know which one ate him? I notice my upper jaws will ignore fish that could clearly fit in thier mouths but my lapradei eats fish that even I think are safe...

My ornate has gone for fish that looked "too big"... and she's succeeded. Other than that, only my endli has tried (and would have succeeded had I not intervened). My sengalis, palmas and delhzis are pretty mellow around fish that MIGHT be too big to eat.

bummer these things happen thow make sure there the same size

Bought 2 palmas and a del two weeks ago, all are about 4 cm, the del a little bit thin. They would be food in the big tank, so they go in a XL petbox for the moment, with an atya gabonensis (as they started to harass at once) and 8 cm south lungfish. After the move about three weeks I gonna give the small polys a 500 l tank so before the larger polys move in. Then have to stay in 280 l tank, until the small one reach uneatable size.
I lost a bigger Del this summer, and I ain't gonna do the same mistake again. I even bought 13 cm silver arowana and at the same time fed the polys plentiful. After the first night, the aro had lost an eye. Nowhere to put it, it had to stay in the tank. 6 days later I found the head on the bottom. I don't get, polys are mainly bottom dweller and aro's are surface crusiers. What's the problem? Don't eat my aro's! Maybe a new aro after the move in big tank...
