55 gallon KY native tank

[Bobbitworm]

Started up my 55 a few weeks ago, stocked it yesterday from the creek on my land. Filtration is an Aquaclear 70 and I have 2 jebao powerheads for more flow. The creek chubs seem to love the flow, as do all the other open water fish I collected but need help iding.

These are the fish, I think the darters are fantail darters but I’m unsure

I have Rainbow Darters and their native here in Ohio. Tbh I'm a newbie myself to natives so can't help with the ID. Nice setup for them.

NICE.

How is the flow of the tank setup?

NICE.

How is the flow of the tank setup?

The flow is pretty high, close to 50x turnover per hour and the fish absolutely love it. They’ll put their faces into the current and just relax, and when they get tired they go behind a rock and chill. When I’m feeding frozen they go all over the tank chasing food.

Sounds like a good set up. Any full shots of the tank?
