I have some very small sculpin in my fishpond because they are attractive. I just feed them worms because when fishmen fish with worms, they seem to catch lots of sculpin on the hooks. I also provide sticklebacks, small fish in the pond too. They seem to be doing great and thriving.
What else can I help you with?

Are tide pool sculpins warm blooded or cold blooded?
Cold Blooded. the only fish that even comes close to being warm blooded is the Blue Tuna. but even thay are truly cold blooded. the reason thay might be considered warm blooded if the fact that they expend so much energy swimming that when caught and opened their bodied are warm. but when at rest and alive their blood is cold.
