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

Don't underestimate mosquitofish. I had a few that were .5" to 1.5" that i tried to feed a bluegill around 4" and they killed it overnight. Maybe i just got rabid ones though. :ROFL:

i agree....dont know why theres danios and rasboras in there...

It sucks, that was a good thread, I'm going to try to add some more profiles and ask a mod if they can clean it up.

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.

Those Colombian Predatory Tetras are in my "500 popular freshwater fish" book. I'll see if i can find it and give you some info.
 
go salt and get a sargassum fish...they are so predetory they will eat any thing less than 1 cm bigger than they are!!!

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.
star fish Can be vicios e.g. crown of thorns, chocolate chip, red knobby
all will chase down a scallop and eat it! ALL ecinoderms are monsters!!!! except for sea cucumbers they just look like big turds on the sea floor.

I have an empty 10g, is there any mini predatory fish I can keep in there for live or a very long time? other than betta.

hey jp, what you do is build a 300g sump filter onto the back of this 10g tank. Put 2 fluval FX5 on there, and put a shoal of S. maculatus in there...but I guess we'd still have to figure out what to stock the 10 gallon with. Convicts?
:grinno:

dude stop reading my mind...now I have to change it...going for a 500g sump instead and put neons in the 10g with 3 more FX5 :D
