Re: Shrimp question
Just wanted to add that I could observe the whole neon was apparently bulging
out the belly of the catfish the following day. (sort of like the silhouette)
It can swallow them whole, and their mouth is a whole lot bigger than it
would appear.
<< In my experience, gouramis don't move fast enough to hunt successfully,
nor
do they have the inclination to do so. I've never seen plecos look for food
in the water, only on surfaces (due to the sucker mouth). My guess would be
the upside down catfish. If this is related to the humbug (does it have
those
long whiskers?) I believe they are hunters. I had one at one time. My neons
would disappear overnight. To be fair to the guy, I know at least 2
instances
where he possibly only scavenged a dead body (ailing fish were observed
before lights out). There was 1 time that was questionable. I then adopted
him out.
