These are cool fish. We have larger versions (8" to 12") in our local river. They have big, human-like teeth, and when they feel threatened they blow themselves up with air...like a balloon. I've never seen them exhibit this behavior when they're confined in a tank. They have ravenous appetites and should be isolated from other fish
Names? Hmmm, how about Spot and Dot, or Spotty and Dotty.
