I finally became afraid for the life of my kribs and other dwarf cichlids today.His total kill list so far is
4 full grown serpae tetra
3 full grown black skirt tetra
4 dwarf cory
2 shwartz cory
a hatchet fish
1 full grown red eye tetra.
about 20 medium mollys transferred from my pond [for food]
all this from one very sick dang near dead leaf fish that I bought out of pity.I bought this guy a month ago to the day.Hes been busy :jaws:
I knew he would be ravenous,but I honestly thought I had more time to get it sorted out before my prized fish were at risk.The good news is ,I still have my acara and my pair of kribs,,,,thats a relief.I moved him to the new 55 gal,theres is nothing small enough for him to eat in there,except for mollys.btw,he grew by at least a 3rd in that month:ssuprised:

Thats great news smaug! Even if it means he's killed off some of your fish. Sounds like a complete turnaround from when you bought him. thumbs2:

BTW, was he swallowing all the fish you lost? or just killing them?
