fatpuffer Posted June 6, 2009 Report Share Posted June 6, 2009 I was very surprised at the biting power of my gently giant v. synspilum. I threw in a crayfish (aussie) because I thought it was dead but long story short...my syns chased the crayfish and in one bit manage to obliterate the crayfish in pieces! I have never seen cichlid eat a 6 inch crayfish but wow. I though my puffers were vicious but this guy is just as vicious! Js Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hemi Posted June 6, 2009 Report Share Posted June 6, 2009 I have seen oscars inhale crayfish and just spit out little pieces, I also had a Midas that could easily draw blood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firestorm Posted June 18, 2009 Report Share Posted June 18, 2009 My oscars when they were only 4" in size ate 2 of my 5" crayfish I had in the same tank. Just because a fish is gentle doesn't mean they won't eat certain fish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
