most interesting cichlid to watch feed

feeding what kind of food, or just in general?
i like feeding my pacus and the blue acaras too. but the pacus are awesome to watch eat, especially home grown guppy feederes. when you feed mine pellets they will sometimes come up to the surface and "beg" by putting their mouths out of the water and let me drop pellets in and tubifex cubes whole.

Not a cichlid but have you ever seen a snakehead eat. That is pretty incrdible. I saw a large on a little while ago and realized why else they call them a snake head. They coil and attack.
 
The other day at my LFS..the owner was feeding his 3 feet black pacu rats he baught from the pet store.....It was not a pretty thing to watch..but its very interesting.. The water was pretty much poluted after.
 
my freind also had a snakehead that recently died it was about 2 feet long and it was great to watch eat. they are now illegal in New york and i think in most if not all of the united states
