right now it stays in the low 70's and not worried bout the guppies at all. figured my 4" sens would've tried eating them by now! But i figured tht temp would be ok right? and since its small enough figured it would adjust to the warmer waters in the summer. they dont get more than 80. tell me wht u think tho!mm...what temp do you plan on keeping them all at?..the sculpin will need colder than most of those fish will be comfortable in.
it will eat the guppies as well.

p.s. love ur tank set up is most of the driftwood n rocks native or did you purchase them? thinking bout redoing mine with some things from the creeks around here, but dont want to introduve a buch of parasites either...
Sweet will keep tht in mind. i believe i have enough o2 got a 8" airstone and a Penquin bio-wheel 350 and already keep the water level couple inches lower b/c of the bichirs! With the wood pieces did u do anything special to them b4 u introduced them into your system??
