Homaloptera smithi movie

Post by Thomas » Fri Jan 04, 2008 5:17 pm

Hi,

i have a short(17sec/4,5MB) movie about my H. smithi. You can watch how they catch artemia.

If someone is interested and want to download it, please use the rightclick/save_target function. A leftclick on the link does not work properly, the browser tries to play the video with a plugin. But not ask to download the file. I'm not an expert... ;)

Superb footage of how these loaches like to hunt out their foods. Mine are way to fast to capture on film.

Right click on it and save it to your desktop. It's short, but it really does show how these guys hunt. Quite aggressive.

Thomas, your fish look to be in very good health. Thanks for this.

Thanks Mark. :wink:

Excellent little vid which shows their stealthy hunting technique, Thomas. 8) A blink of the eyes and you miss it.
