He was just murdered!!!!!

[thrasherfox]

I thought they would be ok together. they lived together for the last three weeks with no problems..

But a few minutes ago one of them struck without warning and killed the other....

I am devastated..

Here is a pic of the deceased....

 

[thrasherfox]

Notice his tail is totally bitten off..

Here is a pic of the murderer!!!!

 

[thrasherfox]

I guess my snow flake felt like a little lobster tail for dinner.... man and they had been together for 3 weeks with no problems...

 

[PACIFICBUSA]

that was just a lil one....


get one of them BIG fuggers in there...

 

[PACIFICBUSA]

the lobster, I mean...

 

[thrasherfox]

He was acually just a cool looking blue cray fish.. but to me he was my little lobster...

Kind of expected it though. crustations are an eel's favorite food. I only paid $3.00 for him figured he would either live or the eel would have a nice meal (pun not intended). I guess I just figured that he made it like a few weeks and he was good to go..

Oh well..

I know when lobsters shed they are more vulnerable to attack/being eaten....the eel in my Marine Science class went after the lobster in his tank when it was shedding...never bothered him other than that as I guess he can't really hurt him. They moved the lobster to another tank until his new shell grew in completely....I think it took about 3 weeks...then they were put back in the same tank again and all was well.

Maybe your little craw daddy was shedding or something like that?

Sorry for your loss Ron.

I think it just took Snowflake three weeks of planning to figure out how to prepare dinner.

Honestly though...Sorry for you loss Ron

 

[thrasherfox]

Honestly everyone I aint that upset about it. thanks for all the sorry's though..

I just cant believe he ate that much of the tail, I mean I have seen the eel open is mouth up before but Dayum...

 

[yamahor]

quick, somebody call 911!!!! GET THE FBI, CSI, FFA, FCC, and the MIB, STAT.

 

[mjn]

I hate that eel! Just somebody else that can eat shellfish when I can't!!!

DAM.







I love crayfish.

 

[SoBad]

Wow $3.00 for a crawfish. I can get you all you want out of the canal behind my house for free. I have one in my tank with a 5 year old Oscar and they get along pretty good.

Bummer!! I've lost quite a few critters in the same manor over the years

I have a slipper lobster in my larger tank.  He's so ugly nothing bothers him.  He never comes out either. I see him about 3 times per year when I re-arrange my aquascaping and scrape coraline.
