My students caught a naked sole today, about 5 inches in diameter. Does anyone know anything about keeping these guys? I'm looking for diet and who they'd get along with. I have ten tanks, but this guy's hanging out in a bucket until I can figure where he could go!

I'd like to put him in a touchpool, but we have a 10 inch flounder in our large one who's a bit of a punk. We have a second touch pool, which is entirely invertebrates, and I'm worried about him getting along with them.

Anyone have any experience keeping these guys?
 
Treat them like a similar sized ray for diet. They feed on small things that can snag on the bottom.... shrimp, small fish etc....
