its deff a green sun fish, and deff a bad *** aggressive fish , but they dont get to big your other fish will deff outgrow him..
I am glad I guess. From what I have been able to gather the "green sunfish" is a much better fish that I have in my pond than what I thought I had, plain jane bluegills. I am totally unworried about the "agressivness" of these "feeder" forage fish. I plan to stock my pond with my Bowfins and Gars. The gorry pictures of the "eaten" fish have nothing to do with the "Butti Tilapia, Jaguar cichlid or Dovi it IS STILL homed with and RULING the tank. The pictures are what my Bowfins did to these type of Green Sunfish when they were tiny (under 12").
I agree that the Green Sunfish is so much more agressive than the Dovi, Jaguar, Butti Tilapia or Johanna pike, but it is less than a nothing snack for my monster fish that I am going to stock my pond with! From my personal experience Bowfins & Gars love to eat these mean "green sunfish"! I have bazillion agressive feeder fish in my pond! It is strange, I had eight bass (7 LMB & 1 SMB). The Green sunfish never was forage food for the LMB. Even after ten years they will not eat them. The SMB would eat anything and everything with agression levels off the chart.
I am worried about stocking my farm pond with my Gars and Bowfins due the two surviving LMB that are terrified by the Green Sunfish! What's up with that? God I so HATE THE LMB and SO wish that I never stocked my pond with this most boring garbage chicken poop fish on earth.
I will NEVER understand WTF fishermen have ANY intrest in this most pathetic pansy ass wimp of a lame excuse of a US native fish. How on earth could such a WIMP fish get such a "cult" following from US FW fisherman, and real TRUE monster U.S. native fish are utterly despised and targeted for extinction by these same said fisherman.
It has GOT TO BE PEN-NIS envy! Your pathetic LMB < the 250,000,000 HW champion GAR! We won't even go into the real BADDEST ASS MONSTER FISH IN THE USA.
It is SO UTERLY HATED BY ALL, that the single BADDEST ASS monster fish in North America DOES NOT EVEN WARRENT IT OWN FOURUM on "MONSTERFISHKEEPERS.COM" You can not GET anymore p-envy than that!
Yea OK gang, The Amia Calva does NOT qualify as a species of fish to be "considered" on a website focused on "MONSTER FISH"
Anyone have any CONCEPT of how my beloved "Bowfin" does NOT qualify as a "MONSTER FISH" due it's OWN forum?????
