Killer Bumble Bee Goby

[bmg_customz]

Help!!! I have a Bumble Bee that is eating my neon tetras. He eats flake food just fine, but in the past day or two he has taken to the tails of my neons. There ar about 50 tiny baby guppies in the tank, but he doesnt go after them. Any ideas??

are you sure it's the bumblebee goby that is biting the tails?

try feeding it some more food, make sure it is well fed and it will be less inclined to eating others.

it's probably going after the neons because they hang around the bottom vs the baby guppies that live near the surface.
