Oh dear. Wildlife will be opportunistic in its habits. Are chicken hawks like foxes then? They kill everything and leave the bodies?

Yes, it's quite sad.
FF- No, they kill them and carry them off piece by piece. When we found the hawk, there was only pieces of one body left. We had four hens. The only chicken that survived was our rooster, Sheldon.
Anyway, I forgot to tell you guys this!
Look who I found when I cleaned the substrate out of my tank!
The long lost Agent 47.... My assassin snail who went MIA a few months ago. I guess he really did die. No idea why. I put his shell in my curio cabinet.
I also took the liberty of snapping a few pics of the angels. :) Enjoy.

It's quite hard to get a good side view, because they rush at me when I approach the tank. They're like, "Ya got any food?"
Ahh, that's better. This is my big 'un. Lol. I'm going to say he is on the verge of 4 inches tip to tip.130g: 7 Angelfish, 1 Bolivian, 12 Neon Tetras, 14 Serpae Tetras, 9 Kuhli Loaches, 1 Otocinslus, 1 Corydora ? Ghost Shrimp

Great pics of the Angels. I like the head-on shot, but I agree that last shot is quite beautiful. Can't wait to see them when they're full grown. =XLast edited by KevinVA; 02-10-2013 at 10:13 PM.

So today I've noticed my Serpae's nipping at some of the smaller angels. The question is................. should I increase the school, or trade them in?
I like them, and would like to keep them, but should I spend more money on them and potentially have to return them and take a loss?130g: 7 Angelfish, 1 Bolivian, 12 Neon Tetras, 14 Serpae Tetras, 9 Kuhli Loaches, 1 Otocinslus, 1 Corydora ? Ghost Shrimp
