Nice Fish! Sculpins and darters rock! I'd love to have some in my tank, but they'd all just end up being snacks for my sunnies and bass

Nice catches. We get several of those around here as well. There's a nice creek near me full of spectabile and caeruleum.

Love the darters. I would suggest ditching the walmart gravel and getting some sort of sand.

Roberto,

Great fish and photos. I've never seen N. nubilis but I immediately thought your fish was Luxilus genus by glancing. I might very well be wrong (would not be the first time).

Thanks for posting the photos.

Sculpin have always been one of my favorite fish. I used to catch them all the time as a kid, and they always reminded me of miniature Lingcod.
