I'm talking about it jumping a few feet into the air to get a tiny insect off a branch.
 
GATF or hoplias aimara... my goldfish are pretty ferocious as well. you should seem them man handle those flakes like its there job
 
I have to agree that there are right and wrong answers. Opinions aren't solid without comparative facts. Rd, tex, cons.....not among the elite fw predators. The true predators are those you have to worry about eating other fish in the tank, not just nipping and killing. Predators are out for food, not territories. Piranha have been given this false identity thanks to exaggerated movies and stories. When fed regularly, and not starved, they're like any other fish with teeth. They are capable, but not willing. Snakeheads have to be at the top of this list. Simply because, as already said, THEY WIPE OUT ENTIRE FREAKING ECOSYSTEMS! They will eat any and everything that could possibly fit in their mouths. Ever wonder why they're not allowed in the States anymore?

The reason this is the wrong answer is because you used the word tiny in reference to its prey.
 
in my experience....
My Silver Arowana hit feeders the hardest.:character0087:
My RTM is down right mean, but lets a few fish live with him. :nilly:
My RD wont let anything living or non living in the tank with him.:naughty:
My old rtc ate anything that hit the water like it was his last meal.:chillpill:
My warmouth is the most agessive eater.:headbang2
My Piranha is a wimp and lets a REd DEvil stay in his tank with him :nilly:
My gar is like a tiger and slowly approaches his prey and lighting quick clutches it between his teeth.:character0087:
My old Texas killed everything when they started to breed.:irked:

If I had to choose....My RD
