Going where no one has ever gone before - and documenting it!

To my archerfish and pictus catfish tank, I want to try and incorporate a male pumpkinseed. I think it is likely the pumpkinseed will get along with both because they don't conflict with similar sized catfish in the wild and may view the archerfish as a mixed species school pumpkinseeds sometimes join.
But, I can't know how likely it is to work until it is tried. To my knowledge no one has ever done it before, and when I asked on NANFA they wanted to know what would happen too.
When all the other fish reach the appropriate size for a pumpkinseed to be added, I will get one and make sure to keep NANFA and you folks here up to date on what happens for good documentation to the answer of this burning question.
