I must say that I like the way some fish eat. Snakeheads when they were legal in the U.S. were & still are one of my favorits to see eat. I also like to see hampala barbs eat these torpedoshaped fish grap prey with a dart & shake like there is no tomorrow they hold on like dogs to a bone. what are your favorite eaters.
 
african tiger pikes and any type of bichir:woot:
 
Peacock bass for their speed and accuracy, also the way they are such gluttons. Eat till they can't swim anymore and have to sit on the bottom for a while.

School of piranhas in a frenzy is pretty awesome.

Also barramundi for their use of suction to inhale food, how they make a big BOOF! noise when feeding from the surface.
 
The most fun fish are probably snakeheads for sheer ferocity, pbass for excitability and acestros for absolute precision and speed.

I found acestros more impressive than ATFs, they never miss. Awesome predators.
 
I'd have to say eels during feeding time... I still remember seeing a moray dart out, take one pass at a goldfish, and disappear back into it's hole almost before I could see what was happening. About a minute later, the goldfish's head floated out of the hole. Picture perfect!
