What do they eat? I'm breeding guppies and need a disposal fish for the culls. They look like they might eat fish.
Any special keeping needs? I've got a 110 and 125+ I've not set up yet so I'm pretty sure they could do ok in those tanks. what about companions? Are they species tank fish or could they go in a community tank(with other big fish)?Guppies:
Hi-fin pepper Cory's, Black Cory's, Long Fin Golden Aneus, Swordtails, some lyretail(RREA's, Red, Albino Koi, Red & Gold Tux), Different types of BN plecos(albino, calico, long fin, blue eyed short & long fin)
Mystery Snails, Yellow Shrimp, CPDs

max size 28" but can breed at any size above 4"s
temp. range- 72-82 degrees F.
salinity- 0.0-21ppt (they do like a little)
Temperment, noncombative but eat small fish
ph range- 6.5-8.0
origin, Mainly Carribbean islands and coastal areas of Gulf of Mexico
Diet, Anything, they are omnivores and eat plants, inverts, fish, and even detritus so don't freak if you see it sucking in mouthfuls of sand or gravel and them spitting them back out.
Habits, They like to dig and sometimes make hollows under drift would, they seem to prefer planted tanks and tanks containing structure like rocks and driftwood and show best color over dark substrate, often breed after major water changes and high protien conditioning.
They will build and defend nesting pits, the eggs are tiny as are the fry which need liquid fry food.my fish house:
