i have an awesome idea!

[oscar fish lover2000]

ok, i have a great idea for all the fish breeders out there to experiment with: dwarf monster fish
here's how i think it'll work first breed two large fish of any kind then breed the smallest offspring of those fish, then breed the smallest offspring of those fish and then breed the smallest offspring of those fish so on and so forth until you have small monster fish with the same personality and looks, only way smaller! has anyone tried this? the idea that i could keep two red tail catfish, an arowana and a whole bunch of oscars in a 100 gallon is absolutely awesome! imagine rtc's and arowanas that grow up to 30 cm and oscars that could grow up to 15 cm! i hope someone tries this someday (if it's not cruel) if you are a fish breeder, then you might wanna try this for an experiment!

Inbreeding will result in negative effects and i doubt it would be small enough to really be a big difference, a particular species has particular traits to begin w/. Maybe if your talking decades and decades of evolution it may be a bit smaller.

Good idea tho it would be sweet to see a 6" sperm whale lol

yeah, like they did with foxes in russia, breed them for years and years and years now they're domesticated pets

Lol.

Same w/ all domesticated animals like cats and dogs but not much smaller, thatd be cool if they made a chemical that could have size variables in fish, like a synthetic growth hormone that could beef em up or shrink em.

I give my piranhas regular steroid injections, makes em tougher lol. Jk

Sorry...but thats a perversion.

+1 for the 6" sperm whale idea. Ixnay on the small Oscars and such.

your "awesome idea" is called line breeding, or inbreeding, depending on how you do it. look it up. not really anything that needs experimenting any more. we (at least the intelligent ones) get it.
unless your willing to experiment on your own family, you shouldn't be allowed to do it. and since such things are illegal to do to humans, you'd go to jail and not be allowed to do it anyway.
hey, we all win.

Very easy solution to the promblem. Just get fish that are made for your tank size. If you only can afford a 20 gallon then stick to swordtails and guppies.

There are species like a certain type of fish that stay small. Like exodons, very similar to piranhas in feeding and aggression but they stay only a couple inches. Belonesox belizanus are very picky and I hear they are very aggressive.
