Little Bumblebee Cat

[benzjamin13]

So this morning I wake up and fed the tank in my room. I noticed that the male Swordtail that I just got earlier in the week is gone. I looked under the driftwood to find it's tali sticking out of my little Bumblebee Cat's mouth They were practically the same size! I couldn't believe my eyes! So anyone thinking of these cute little guys...just beware that they can be predatory and vicious.

Vicious is a bit harsh I think. I havent had a bumblbee personally but my buddy has and they pretty much just stayed to themselves. Given the chance any catfish is predetory my suggestion is to just throw a couple of shrimp pellets in every night after you turn the lights off so they get full too. If your already doin that buy bigger swordtails.

Too bad about the sword. But, where's the pic of the sword-swallowing cat?

I would've taken a picture of the moment, but I had to leave to get to work on time. But here's some shots of the little fella that I just took.
