longeared Sunfish- native in North America, not a cichlid

Thats not a cichlid. Its some kind of sunfish. I think its a green sunfish.

It is not a long eared sunfish... its a green sunfish. A US native like ^^ said.

 

[yulinzzz]

thnx

 

[oscarcrazy]

[marauders30]

so u got it on accident with goldfish? haha thats cool. i wish i just get fish accidently mixed in haha

i think that the top pic may be a bluegill though. the rest are green sunfish but that top pic is at an odd angle.

Nope, thats not longear or bluegill. All of them are green sunfish.
