wunderschöner fisch, frisst sofort lebendfische (bei uns bekommt er black mollys), diese müssen dann jedoch direkt vor seiner nase vorbeischwimmen, dass er sie frisst! denn dass er sie direkt jagt und ihnen hinterherschwimmt, um sie zu fressen, habe ich noch nicht beobachtet! ein sehr interessanter beckenbewohner, verträgt sich mit allem gut, allerdings ist er anscheinend sehr anfällig! deshalb ist unser erster auch leider aus bisher unergründlichen gründen verstorben! nachdem er seltsam im becken umherschwamm, sackte er immer mehr ab und hing letztendlich an der strömungsanlage fest und verendete dort! haben schon einen neuen bestellt, mal schaun, wann er kommt:)
