The UMBEE AND THE MICE

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Thank you all for the postive feedback! Thats what Im talking about, He's a real MONSTER FISH! Im Real MONSTER FISH KEEPER! And that is one of many traits of the UMBEE that I love. I wanted to show the UMBEE's predatory drive or instinct like it has never been seen before. "On a larger scale." For those of us who have kept this fish know that they can have a ravenous appetite and react to live food the same as any other large predatory fish. I have only heard of them taking live mice but have never witnessed it and after my trip to Colombia there was no doubt in my mind that the Umbee would take whatever it could fit into its mouth. Truly a Blue Freckled Monster. You can take the fish out of the wild but you can't take the wild out of the fish!
 
These are really beautiful fish, and he is a total beast. I'm pretty sure my will be featured one day eating a mouse or 2 for my YouTube channel... I can't wait till it's a monster.

I have seen the video but nothing like visiting Chris and spending time talking about cichlids and the hobby. I saw it in person this Saturday and was in awe of the power of this beast. Kamodo was banging the top glass when it first saw the mouse. The impact of the first bite killed the mice right away, from there, it was swallowed and I did not even see much left over. It was insane.

Thanks Gani, it is always a pleasure to converse with someone who is equally passionate about cichlids as I am. You are welcome any time brotha!

Bro i find it hard to believe that Kamodo hasnt eaten that plec in there;) what a beast!!! Too bad its soo hard to find monster females to give him a run for his money or one that could fend for herself so he wouldnt demolish her.. lol i dont think they make dividers strong enough for hogs like that roflmao...

He hasn't tried to eat it but has tried to kill it. He has ripped the fins off that poor guy multiple times that now he has just finally given up and leaves it alone.
