Native Tank

[Hoyo12]

50-Gallon Breeder tank. 18"x18"x3'
2x Green Sunfish
1x Pumpkinseed Bluegill
5x Minnows
I will be adding sand to the tank soon.

Nice green!
But the pumpkinseed looks a bit beat up.
Do they get along?

Thanks!
The Pumpkinseed is a bit beat up, because of when I had a second Pumpkinseed with him in the 60-Gallon they would fight constantly. So, I moved him into here, and he is healing nicely. Otherwise he gets along with the two Greens.

That's good to hear.
What do you plan to put in there?

 

[Destroyer551]

Besides the others, if you are putting anymore at all.

ohh, you might have a spawn if your lucky and have good water quality.
I've done nothing special in the past but have had 4 spawns from my old greenies! I did nothing special but weekly 20% water changes. And every few months I'd awaken to a well made nest an lots an lots of eggs!

I was hoping to get a spawn from the two. Last night they slept together in one of the hiding spots, lol. I read that they spawn in early June. Could I still get them to spawn, even though June is pretty much over?
