stocking a 220

[barley pop]

i am thinking of redoing my 220 and going native...

how many sunfish and LMB can i keep in it ???

i was thinking 2 LBM

and 6-8 bluegill
(sunfish of some sort) the pond i fish has out 932572984572039756 diffrent types in it so i am not sure what type they would be.


filtration on the tank is 1 x FX5, 2 x XP3, 1 Emp 400.

i'd go with just one LMB and then some sunnies.

I'd agree on just one LMB. They are monsters, but really cool fish to keep. Just don't underestimate what he can fit in that mouth. I've seen 8" bass eat 6" bass

To be honest if you can I would stay away from a LMB just because he will cause problems...But if you must have one I would get one then get like 3 gills then maybe 10-12 other sunfish of any kinds and different kinds...Put them together at the same size some may make it some may not but in the end you will have yourself a pretty sweet native tank.
