i keep mostly Native fish, one of which is a Warmouth, Only about 3 inches long currently, I had 3 nice darters in that same tank about the same size or larger than he is, the other day, i went to find one of my darters (the tail at least sticking outta his mouth :WHOA: . My question is, I also keep small cory cats in the tank as janitors, and knowing they have those sharp little fins, what is the chance he will try to eat one, it gets lodged in his throat, and he croaks. I dont care if he eats them, his is just a nice fish i dont want to lose through ignorance....Oh by the way i moved the darters that were left
 
Even sharp spines dont prevent this warmouth from attacking on the corydora. Ive lost some corydoras to 4 inch long orangespotted sunfish in the past and I recently lost 4 inch long highfin peppered corydora to the 6 inch long pumpkinseed x green hybrid. IMO its not best thing to put corydoras in with warmouth.

Thanks the corys are out. A little off thread, but not totally :naughty: Do you have any idea where i might find some Orange spotted sunfish. Any info would be much appreciated
