I was very lucky to witness and film the unique hunting behaviour of the Nimbochromis Livingstonii, this was captured at Lion's Cove. Rarely witnessed in the wild let alone filmed.
The other diver was my dive buddy Kathy from Australia.

So freaking cool. What an experience it most had been to go to lake malawi!!
Wow! I was in awe thinking it was some type of flat cichlid. When it swam off I was like - no way! Good job mate, I'd love to see these magnificent creature's in their natural habitat... special, feel privileged to share in the moment
Your dive footage is so awesome. I find myself holding my breath while watching. So cool. Thanks
Way cool! 😃👍 I wish Dover would Have stayed further to spectate The livingstonii catch a fish...
what an excellent video its so rare to get a chance to see these fish we keep in the wild and the behavior that is natural for them ...bravo...
Amazing footage I've read about this before. I kept a few for years as well . But I've never seen this before. Thanks for sharing Marc.
+Rab Anderson My pleasure
just adopted one from a family with 2 kids and to think this thing should be in a lake in the middle of africa and not a 50 gallon is crazy. the one i have is MUCH darker but its because of the environment its kept. luckily i found someone who can adopt it from me with a giant tank to give this chonker a bigger home and some company. for the week or 2 i get to keep this animal its pretty cool.
Awesome video Marc!
THAT is awesome! Always wanted to see this!
I really enjoy your videos. Please keep them coming.Ted
Great. Love Nimbo but I miss a few cm to keep him. Thanks so much, that I could see it. Good luck.

Very interesting, good catch!

Marc!!! Welcome back. I know this is how they hunt but I can't say I have seen t before. Thanks.
Thank you! I should be a lot more active this year.
+African Cichlid Hub. I look forward to your videos.
amazing video
Wow, super cool Marc!
Certainly was :)
Love when my fish does this in the tank! Although I have never actually seen him lay on his side. He spreads his fins and goes completely motionless.
Beautiful!
Great video, not much of this on the old tube!!
+dazmastergt Not that I can see Daz
Good timing and eye - such a unique behavior.

+Gary shaw Thanks Gary
great video after a long time. Are u alive @ Marc?...
Very nice!
Thank you
Awesome video!!! made me laugh seeing this guy play dead my Livingstonii has done the same thing every time i release a new batch of young bucks i wish they stayed looking like the grim reaper love their color changing abilities
i have a venustus and he does the same thing it is fascinating
brilliant
had mine do similar quite often... tho never flat...more like 45degree angle
Hope you are making a come back soon
Would love to see a vid of how your tank is doing . I miss those videos of your tank
+carpet180 I understand, I get asked multiple times on a daily basis. I'm currently in the process of sorting some new stock out for the tank. Soon I promise.
+African Cichlid Hub Sounds good thanks !
Makes me want a livingstoni, very cool behavior and patyerns!
+FortWayne Fishtanks Can be lethal in mixed tank though :)
Lol true
@@AfricanCichlidHub true I had a 7 inch one that killed about 9 fish. Will eat anything smaller and slower
Awesome footage mate! :-D
Whoever clicked unlike on this...I hope they s#it a cactus soon! ;-)
Mine like to do that too, but he prefers to lay in a hole in big rock i have in my tank. He blends right in. The little guy in your vid might want to choose better background for laying, but i guess you do not need camouflage if other fish think your dead.
He lays there so smaller fish investigate. He then eats them quickly. That’s why it’s called hunting behaviour It’s an ambush predator
where have you gone I just watched your Channel and have been binge watching for 3 days now. I'd like to subscribe but I just purged my subscription list of all in active vlogers. Are you going to be doing more video's or is what I see what I get?
behavior could lead to evolution of flounders?
Cute!
lovely footis
I have a 55 gallon tank with 8 medium sized cichlids. My first question is how many more cichlids can I put into the tank, and can I put a crayfish into the tank? Thanks
uk
what kind of him?
Nice! Very crafty. Pretend to be dead then BAM!
The only species in the lake that does it 👍
+African Cichlid Hub Don't N. venustus do it?
im pretty sure its just the Livingstonii that play dead like this
Play dead LOL! Great video !
Where u gone ?
Poor little guy was just tuckered out and needed a nap, but these two weird guys wouldn't quit bothering him!
+De Luth Best comment I've had on one of my video's for a long time ...
+African Cichlid Hub I'm just happy to see a new video from you, it has been a while. Thanks! My Africans were pressed against the glass and pushing each other trying to watch the video.
+De Luth Yeah sorry for the lack of uploads. I plan on being active on 2016!
I really thought it was death lol cheers
did I miss something I didn't see him catch a fish
My god .. this fish is insane 😂😂😂
WHAT DO THEY HUNT????? Other cichlids???
Yeah
smaller fish
first time mine did that in tank I freaked out cuz I thought he had died.
are african cichlids from african?
+Scolopendra Exotics yep....this lake is lake malawi in east africa.
That is fucking awesome aye it's like a massive community well it is a massive community sorry for cursing but that is amazing soooooo awesome look at all of them I have a 15cm livingstoni in my tank
I want to swim with my fish
Me too
This tank is way too small.
😂😂😂
What about your tank, waiting to see it soon.
Playing dead, solid strategy!
👍
I almost flushed mine cause of this
+Marin Bandalo They can be a nightmare in captivity
+African Cichlid Hub that's why I gave mine away
Stay Scheming
Awesome!
Thank you for watching
