Chiming in

[MultispeciesTamer]

Just checking in as I do every once so often. With college I havnt spent as much time on keeping native aquarium fish as I would like. I currently still have a Redspotted Sunfish and a Green sunfish. I would love to re-expand my collection but with out knowing where ill be going to school in the next few years I find it not so easy. This year I may buy a seine and do some collecting. I see many new members on here but still some old names around. In college I am studing for fisheries so even though I dont have time to keep native species I get to learn about them. I guess thats all to say. Ill try to stay active on here and get some new tank shots around but no promises.

Go to a college that has a lake. That way, you can collect fish and it won't be a long trip back to your dorm tank!

What a lucky thing see youre listing Ospots as one of the fish you keep, love those little guys, i had a couple for about a year, they did well, but are not available where i live, or at least i havent found them lol

I used to have Ospots untill the main red spot killed them. That is why he is in a tank by him self know .

Ever hear of Blue Spotted Sunfish?I didn't even know we had them!
I got some and they are pretty much the best Sunfish I've ever kept.
Dwarfs...and color?!?Outrageous.If you can get dwarf anything then you can still keep!

Good Luck!

Oh you're going to Lake St? Nice choice. If I had it to do over I would have chosen to go there too. The hunting and fishing possibilities are endless. I have a couple friends who went there and they loved it.

Theres also Baned and Blackbaned "micro" sunfish. I've never kept them. But they are incredibly colored.
