After putting in some BB this morning, I saw what appeared to be cannibalism in my ghost nymph container. I popped open the top and saw that one was holding the fly and attached to the top and the other was chowing down suspended in midair. I just had to get some photos and share.

I had a similar experience...except my "semi communal ghost" were snacking on a brother...one was munching a head the other chewing a leg...I think they were barely L3

 
some of my guys did the same thing... two of them both caught the same moth. I separated them before any damage was done to either of them and I'll say this, they do NOT want to let go of their meal... I literally had to force their arms open to get them to let go. Anyway, that's a beautiful photo!
