The fish are beautiful! Is #3 a Longear or dollar? I love the reds and blue on that guy.
How big is your tank?

I think #3 is a Longear. I did not order any dollars. I got some a longear, some warmouths, some redbreast and some red spotted. I also got some green sunfish but they are smaller and I need to grow them out before they go in the main tank. The main tank is a 90 Gallon 4x1.5x2

I have not really thought about native plants though that could be cool. Any suggestions?
Looking good!
With regular aquarium lights you could keep hornwort, American val, guppy grass (Najas), cabomba, and Elodea canadensis, which are all NA natives.

Very lovely combo!
I miss my sunfish.
He was 8" when I lost him...
He sometimes ate out of my hand when handfeeding my Oscar!

Great looking specimens, money well spent.
Aquascaping is nice as well.
