Green Sunfish and Rock Bass

[Mudfrog]

Will this combo do ok together? I've had them a few days and have seen no aggression towards each other but I don't know how aggressive they are so I'm asking. Tank is a 48x18x13.

Like I said so far they seem ok.. they each have their own fake stump to hide under.

Pics as requested..

2 rock bass and 2 sunfish. the green sunfish i think would kill everything else? thats the most agressive one so thats what im guessing?

they should be fine, i have some greens right now with some northern longears and they leave eachother alone, as long as you have hiding spots for all of them they will be fine together, but you might want to go to a larger aquarium, maybe a 90

Personalities vary on sunfish. I and others have mixed them with no issues so there's a good chance yours will be fine.

I'm not going to be the fish police, but that tank's a little small for them don't you think?

48x18 foot print too small for 3 fish that are 5.5" each?

I have never tried 2 rockbass, but mine just hangs out in the one corner of the tank. As long as another fish doesn't go in his nest its all good. If someone does its a chase, but no harm has been done. Great eaters they can really eat the nightcrawlers!! Its almost like they don't get full. LOL
Footprint is kind of small, but should be alright.
I am glad to see another rockbass keeper!
