I have an empty 20 gallon that I was going to use for a sump but changed my mind... what are some cool fish I could stock it with? The things I want is their has to be at least two fish and I would like a preditory fish I could feed feeders once in awhile
 
20 gallon is a little small for any monster fish. you could start to grow Datnoids since they take so long to grow
 
ctenopoma and a butterfly fish with a few rams
 
It doesnt have to be a "monster" just something fun and different that is predetory... I think puffers are cool but dont know much about them are their any that could work (but not those dwarf ones)
 
Golden Killie Fish. Definitely not monsters, but they are predetory as hell.

Maybe Butis's too. Possibly Exodon's
 
african cichlids. you could get a pair of smaller ones from lake tangayikan. mabye even 2 pairs. theres a ton of options for you.
 
by butis's do you mean buttikoferi???
dont those get far too large for a 20???
 
Exodons look cool but dont they need to be in groups of like 12 (that group wont fit in a 20 will it?)
