green sunfish or warmouth

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Neither! It looks to me like baby longear or dollars. ;) Greens have a white outline on thier fins and warmouth have a completely different body shape and color.

anyone else want to guess before they go see the p bass? :D
thought they was warmouth's :(
i think it was you chad i was going to give warmouths,well,guess there not.lol.sorry :irked:

Yea...dang! Well I wouldn't waste them as food. Deffinatly grow them out because I can garuntee you will really enjoy them when they get bigger. If my hunch is right then you have some VERY nice sunfish on your hands.


lepomis megalotis- longear

lepomis marginatus- dollar

looks like mine have longer noses.
hard to tell tho.

i do have 1 warmouth.
he hasnt eaten in forever tho "see one of my id threads" lol
im getting sick of him and im surprised hes not dead.
dont know what to do with him. :irked:

Keep him. He probably munches at night or when you are not looking. I am really thinking dollar. Look at the pattern on the fullgrown specimen compared to yours. They look very similar. Almost look like a "checker board" pattern... The longer nose is probably just the picture or size.
