It requires a tank of at least 100 gallons at a temperature of 72-85 degrees Fahrenheit, and it usually gets along well with other fish. [3] The drab sole is carnivorous, and while it will not prey on other fish it requires a meat-based diet (worms or small fish work well). [3]
Adult carnivorous lampreys are the most well-known species, and feed by boring into the flesh of other fish (or in rare cases marine mammals) to consume flesh and/or blood; [9] but only 18 species of lampreys engage in this predatory lifestyle [10] [11] (with Caspiomyzon suggested to feed on carrion rather than live prey [9]).
