Any sculpin keepers?

I had two from the beach, but I guess going from 45-50 degrees up to 70-ish overnight was a little rough. Next time I'll try them in the basement first.

ive collected quite a few banded sculpins but never kept them. they are very interesting fish and i'd love to keep one sometime. i guess i'll have to wait till i have a basement to keep it cool for him.

I found a sculpin in my local river scooped him up took him home, then found out what he was. I had never seen one they are so neat. Yet my bluegills got ahold of him sad I know. Maybe Ill find another soon and can put him in the correct tank

Hi what was the maximum teperature in your tank or room that could your sculpin tolerate....Mine sculpin died by 27 celsius in room during summer.
