huh, u mean like a popsickle with a paper piranha on it? wtf?

oh that "end all threads" thing is unfortunately diluted to the point where its not monsters anymore :(. i noticed with alot of members on MFK they dont even know what monster means anymore and think its just a prefix you can add to ANY fish... :irked: "i got some pipe fish monsters!..." or "2 inches is big for a guppy! so now its a monster!"... zzzzzzz they might as well think starfish are vicious and get on with it.

the moment someone posted about mosquito fish i was out of there. just think about what monster means, you dont want to have to explain why your fish is a monster when they clearly had no clue ur fish eats fallen larvae... a TRUE monster is in your face and obvious. whether it be a nice barrage of sharp teeth or a voracious eater with a morbid style. monster fish should be strictly class.

Yea I saw that mosquito fish then I was like wtf?? lol

lots to choose from...would you like ambush predators?
showy predators?
active predators?

I would like something similar to ery ery but it's too big for 10g :(

You could also try the dwarf puffer. Looks cute and cuddly but one badd ass mofo:popcorn:
dwarf puffer looks cool but I've never seen them on sale around here, maybe I wasn't looking at the right places.

what about lebiasina astrigata.
the Colombian dwarf predatory tetra.
get to 3" and are predatory.

got any info on it?
 
scuplin!! some species stay small. they can be difficult to keep but when they get bigger they are highly predatorial
 
channarox, looks like your advise generated some interest :) but I never seen this fish on sale anywhere....maybe some vendor here can provide some info.
