Double verison

Me and my friend find a double verison of the eater: x = 9, y = 7, rule = B3/S23
7b2o$2b2obo2bo$2b2ob2o2$2b2ob2o$o2bob2o$2o! It can eat glider in 8 directions, block in 4 directions, pre-beehive in 4 directions etc.

We also find another verison of this eater: x = 8, y = 8, rule = B3/S23
