Just so i make the right decision here, I'll ask the same question as i did for the blugills, but this time its all about Pumpkinseeds...Would keeping pumpkinseeds be a better option then bluegills for a 75 gallon tank? And would the pumpkinseeds has to be all males or all females? How many would i be looking at in terms of being able to have in a 75 gal?
 
Depends on what fish you like PS's don't usually get as big as BG's. So you could probably keep 1 or 2 more. I'm a GS guy ( Green Sunfish) So I'd choose GS's over both but BG's would be next for me.

That aside I wouldn't keep more than 5-6. That's pushing it already in my opinion. But That's just me.
 
i really like green sunfish i just cant seem to catch any at all.. the usual places where i have good fishing i have never caught green sunfish...only pumpkinseeds, blugills, LM and SM bass, chain pickerel, ect. but never green sunfish...i live in massachusetts around the northshore area, are green sunfish even around here? Oh and if i went tiwht bluegills, how many would fit in a 75 gal? i know bluegills get bigger than pseeds
