Was that the one with the snaggle tooth?? He is very nice looking! Brave little minnows.
 
nice payara ;)
 
Yeah, your vid's freeze up the last couple of seconds for me also. Nice fish, the toothy ones that is. That little fish has got a pair of big ones. If they pick on him to much you might just want to keep throwing them in more often and not have any swimming in there so it don't stress him out.

Not a minnow. Livebearer.;)

Gambusia are known aholes. Though native to parts of NA there are parts where they aren't native. In places where they have been introduced they compete heavily with native fishes such as killifish and other livebearers and have become a serious problem. In aquariums they don't play well with others, even fish much larger them themselves (as you can see). When you consider their size they're the true monsters, not the payara.
