Whosoever asked himself what makes a real good nightmare for small fishes in Amazonia: here is the answer. Hydrolycus tatauaia is a sabertooth-tetra that impales its victims with the extreme long teeth in the lower jaw. These teeth are so long that they have to be placed in special caves in the upper jaw and the skull when the mouth is closed – just like a saber in a sheath. Sweet dreams to you…
