Back at my college, one of the guys had a fish aquarium with various fresh water creatures that you would normally have at a run-of-the-mill pet store.

He had an albino frog, an eel, and some other types of cichlids, I believe.

We tought the albino frog how to eat fish. At first, he really didn't have the dexterity to catch a live fish. We used to buy rosies if I recall.

We'd cut them in half and drop them right in front of the frog.

Finally, he got hooked on the fish and could even catch them.

It was the funniest thing to watch this frog try to stuff fish in his mouth. His "arms" were not really developed to be too usefull; he'd wave 'em like he was fanning his mouth in efforts to try to stuff more fish in his mouth.

The eel would just strike a pose and wait for something to move near it's mouth, then it would simply retract under a rock to eat it's prey.

Cool stuff.
