toadfish..what else can i put in the tank to keep him?

I have a 125 gal with only sand and rock for now. it just finished cycling and parameters are all ok. I caught a toad fish and the guy is so ugly i really want to keep him. Problem is never had one before and he has teeth. What can go in there so I can keep him. I going to settle on a fish only just to keep him. What I do want to is a lion fish and a shark and some other fish that have bright colors. Are these compatable? what else can i have? any feeding suggestions?

 

Well, what kind of toadfish are we talking about? There's a few different groups of fish called toadfish.

from what I can find online it is an oyster toadfish. I found posts on other sites indicating some people didn't have problems with them but others did. So what can I get with color that can live with him and a baby shark and a lion and ummmmm.......who knows what else. Is there anything he won't eat?

 

no shark. 125 is too small. lionfish is a go though, and a good tank mate. pterois volitan would be the best bet, easy, relatively cheap, and cool looking!
