"I don't have interest with you no longer because I have enjoyed eating your friend yesterday already"
- A carnivorous crayfish disregard his prey.

Instead of guppy, his old victim, he attacked his companion.
Today morning he was a vicious carnivore.
One of weak crayfish was prey for his breakfast.

When there is no enough food in aqua, crayfish attack "guppy".  A vicious cray attack a guppy using his powerful cheliped and sharp craw.

Neighbor or enemy ?

                                        Will guppy be a new neighbor or prey for crayfish ? 

                                One crayfish is just looking for new neighbor eating his food.

                                But the other vicious crayfish glare at guppy gloatingly to attack.
