this is my Mottled Sculpin in my 10 gallon planted tank,
Tank mates are snails, and fancy guppies

he will eat anything i pute in the tank wiggling or not
any questions or comments on the tank are welcome

and one of the hole tank (side view)

and front view the dish in the corner was a turtle feeder my mom gave me..he loves to sit in it and watch everything

that is cool!!
while fishing with my friends we caught some sculpin but i guess they have both sw and fw

do those eat the guppies? i have a 10g that is cycling that im doing plants with like a baby guppy cranking population of guppies and i was wondering if sculpins ate adults

 

[Kaosu]

he cant fit the adults in his mouth yet..so he dose not eat them though he loves there fry, witch with 4 females we get a batch every few weeks

hes only about 2 inches now.. im guessing when he hits closer to 3 inches and up some of the adults will start to disappear though two of my female guppies are huge, but for now he just watches them..hoping for babies

well i was wrong..down one fancy male guppy..not sure how he fit in to his gut let alone his mouth but its gone and he spent two days fat as can be sitting under the flow of the filter,
and hes starting to follow the camera around

few things. one what is the temp of that tank?
how are u keeping guppys with sculpin?
he looks very good though.
i wish i still had mine. have to get another(and now have to get another dace, the cray decided to eat him)

 

[Kaosu]

the tank stays about 68-70, i know they prefer colder waters but he has been doing good in this rage for about a year now
and the guppies are for food most of the females are way to big to fit in to his mouth
but apparently not the males, anymore
i box the females when they are having babies, keep the fry in the box for a few weeks and let them out for him to eat
