Very nice! I'd love to start a Native tank.

yea they are def interesting to see what lives in your area. people think that you have to go to other countries to find beautiful fish but imo these two rival most african cichlids or south americans. i had two small bass but once i caught the bill dude i figured it woudl be a little cramped

You have a bluegill AND a redbreast sunfish!

i thought it was a long ear ? i was just using a general name
but he has red from his chest to his tail its pretty incredible. i have seen very few with colors like his and i have fished alot

redbreast sunfish do not have an opercular flap that is a long as that. It is a longear.
