OK I brought a krib (male) last night and today I think he ate one of my tetra. I thought kirbs were peaceful.

they usually r cept when breeding
but even peaceful fish get hungry so it is possible if the tet was small enuf to fit in its mouth

You know the tetra was not small enough to fit into the krib's mouth. I think the fish died and the other fish started to eat the dead fish.

When a small fish dies, it can be easily eaten by other larger fish & your Kribensis where hungry & found some lunch.
