ok so been looking at cold water fish that stay small enough for a 22 gallon...but big enough not to get eaten by my Sculpin...

so i found Paradise fish...they are kinda hard to come by but i picked this little guy up lats night..hes just about 2 inches..can get to 3.5 not including fins..
in the store he was bright red and blue but hes washed out a bit for now..^_^ put him in last night and hes doing fine so far

i needed a fish to hold its own and the first thing it does after dropping him in was flare at my sculpin.....^_^ ..lets see if he gets eaten(hope not)

thank you ^_^ hopefully he can hold his own the first thing he did was flare at the sculpin and back down....i stuffed her with silver sides just before introducing him...so hopefully no eating...there is a slight debate on weather or not he can fit in her mouth...we shall see.

any one wanna take bets? lol
 
I think it'll try to eat it. You'd be surprised how big they can open their mouths.
 
Cool, hopefully your Sculpin wont get that hungry.....if she does looks like it will make a tasty treat, LOL.

...yeah when she yawns her mouth is wider than her body...

By the way, where did you get a sculpin?
a lake....lol they are every where

i dont think she is ever that hungry...but she thinks she is..and swimming things normally have to be tested by her to see if they fit in her mouth....but so far its working out..if she starts stalking him he turns and flares at her and she stops, so no attacking yet by aether of them.
 
the sculpin will more than likly try to eat it. if it thinks it can it will try.

btw you wont get many responces on sculpin here. few of us have kept them. too bad, they are a true mini monster
