Thats awesome! Has anybody else seen this behavior, or is yours just smart?

They all do it, I have 5 Gulpers all together and it happens all the time Its fun to watch hahaha

very neat. What I find odd is this, gulpers will eat tankmates even ones that are bigger than themselves but I haven't heard of a gulper eating another gulper..........

yea it is kinda strange. I've had all 5 together for awhile now and they are doing great. Its crazy how active they are when a bunch are together. Not lazy at all

My goal is 6-8 Gulpers in a 240g or 300g Yea they all hang out together They are very clumsy, crashing into each other. By far my favorite fish I have owned
