This is an example of why I wouldn't put my hands in my fahaka tank, however I love this video. I hope you all enjoy :).

I'm surprised the Fahaka didn't drool at the other fishes in the tank! And they amaze me with their tough bellies. It seems like they can swallow anything without any problems! :D

I know, I worried about the shell pieces that look sharp but he never had any issues. I was kind of hoping one of the crabs would like, 'get the hint' and run... and hide. He didn't get much time to do that though. I'm hoping my marmorkrebs will start holding soon... I have one that is HUGE - I could feed him some of the smaller ones, but I'm afraid I'll wind up with just all babies all the time... I need to talk with the guy at the LFS to see if he'll want some once I start a good colony... or even just when I start, then he can breed all he wants. I think that I could interest him in it, nothing like an in-stock item that never needs rebought?

I cant wait for the crayfish to berry. Mine have gotten freakin huge, ive been putting in the clam shells that i feed bloat and they pick it clean. They all come running when I put the shell in. And it doubles as a hiding place

Mine are happily awaiting their demise (evil laugh) in my daughter's 10g tank. She loves it, and they do too! Lots of plants (fake) to play 'king of the hill' and places to hide. They really don't like the light on - so I leave it off. I only have one 'huge' one, thus far. I've been dropping in a few cichlid pellets, a random trimming here or there, and algae wafers.
