Thank you guys..
As hrishi said, the amount of fish it can swallow is amazing.As you can see from the above pic, its belly was already full at the time of swallowing the gouramil..
Have a look at this video of it hunting a shrimp (sorry for the poor quality)

Hats off to this predator..
Hrishi - Post some pics of your nandus too |
