Once a fish is put into an aquarium, PLEASE! DO NOT introduce him back into the wild.
#1 it is illegal
#2 it can introduce various harmful elements into the ecosystem.
You're better off destroying the fish, I know that sounds bad, but it is better than foreign bacteria or other organism that may not affect the pumpkinseed but another native species or the food they feed on and then from there you can have a chain-reaction through out the ecosystem.
Eat it man. Those are really tasty.
