They showed them killing all of the ones they caught. It made me sad. They're such a pretty fish and they could make a ton of cash from selling them in the aquaria hobby. The ones they were catching were huge!

According to some sources this invasion was caused by the ballast water from ships that came through the panama canal. To me, this sounds a little more likely than coming from escaped aquarium fish
