This last one Im not quite sure about. Is it just a green bluegill, Ive seen them in all kinds of colors, or is it a green sunfish or a warmouth. Its only about an 1'' or so. So I figure he's still a juvenile and I cant find any juvenile pics of sunfish.

This catfish came from the creek behind my house. Its a springfed creek in Anniston Alabama. I'm not sure what kind of catfish it is.

My tank is 55 gallon, and is all native species except for 5 feeder goldfish that got too big to eat. I keep a female Eastern River Cooter, one 4.5 inch LMB, the unidentified catfish, and several small crawfish.

Any help on the catfish ID would be greatly appreciated.. I think maybe a madtom of some sort because it was like an inch and a half long when caught back in the summertime, and now he's like 5 inches.. Thanks for the awesome native posts and all your help!

no walleye srsly? one of my lfs had one and that thing looked mean with fangs to match
Well i just learned first hand walleye dont make good tank fish, as mine passed away after having it a few weeks, they do better outside in my kiddie pool.

I would say yellow bullhead, the barbells on the lower jaws are white.
