Is there any way you could keep surf perch? Have no plans for it as of now, but would be nice sometime in the future. I saw a 125 gallon at an Oregon aquarium with 5 small surf perch. Also does any one know what kind of care these critters would require? Thanks-Logan
do you have a scientific name for these fish> I am not familiar with that name.

Amphistichus argenteus Barred surfperch is the species most common where I live. Also these are saltwater natives

Can these fish fish be kept at room temp or do they need a chiller? Anyways thanks for the response.
I kept thm in the basement where it is pretty cool year round because there are not a lot of heat vents, and with my mother in law here we use the air conditioning a lot during the summer. I did see them in a chilled aquarium at Sea World here when they were still in Aroura Ohio. I am just guessing but I don't think they ever got above 70 here since I didn't use a heater. I kept mostly killifish and cichlids then and the cichlids always needed heaters.
