:Hi, I recently add some hatchet fish to my fire belly newt tank. During the day there were no signs of problems, but the next morning all the plants were shredded along with the newts! I never realized these fish were so aggressive. Its too bad my newts had to pay the price for my ignorance. I thought I'd pass this info along and see if anyone else has had a similar experience.

Sorry to hear this. Sadly, this story deserves a place on the Species Mixing Disasters website.
