Here is my 20 gallon native tank.


Fish:

(12) Pygmy Sunfish (Elassoma Okefenokee)
(2) Swamp Darters
(5) Fathead minnows (small)
(1) Ghost shrimp
(1) Amano Shrimp (non-native)
(1) Orange Dwarf Crayfish (non-native)

Unfortunately the plants are non native, except for a little hornwort and this plant with ruffled leaves, not sure what it is but it is native. I would like to swap out for all native eventually.

Any suggestions, comments, recommendations? Here is some pics (sorry no pygmy sunfish pics):

There is ton of small native fish and you can have a fun tank cause you don't need a lot of room. Of course there is also cool bigger fish too. Some of the bigger fish are trickier to keep though. Like salmon or trout can be hard.

But I wanna do a monster native tank too one day, or maybe even a pond. Stock it with some SMB, bigger Sunfish, bullhead cats, and tons of small species of fish.
