Video of my water beetle eating

[ShadowBass]

Just a little vid of my predacious water beetle getting flake food. Kinda hard to get a clear shot because he didn't stop moving.
I did get a video of him floating there still eating a big piece of flake food, but my stupid phone corrupted the file somehow

I'm definitely gonna set up a tank specifically for a group of them and some other inverts. Any fish in there would just be possible food.

Thechief, my husband netted him out of a private farm ditch, along with a bunch of fish and also a giant waterbug that went in my pond.

That is bad ass

how do you keep him from flying out?

It's a Fluval and it has sliding glass lids. The only spaces are a couple of tiny cutouts at the back for cords, and two small holes at the front for fingerholds. While he can technically fit through the finger holes, he'd have a heck of a time finding them.
