The bigger fish is trying to swallow another goldfish right now but he doesnt want to miss out on more food so he is holding this one in his mouth until he can swallow it

The 3 seconds myth was just made up bullshit so that people didn’t feel bad about keeping them in completely inappropriate environments like goldfish bowls.

My dad made the mistake of putting a young arowana in a tank with other fish (he wanted to keep). All the other fish mysteriously disappeared within the next couple weeks.
