What do think is the best native fish. Some thing that could fit into a 20-30 gallon. Say what you think is best.

Are you talking about a single fish or a community of fish?

Either one, probably single.

Their are so many choices it all boils down to what do you like. i like community type aquariums, a 30 could hold a nice community of dwarf sunfish, darters, madtoms, mollies, hog chokers, mud minnows, swamp fish, pirate perch, various minnows, chubs, shiners, silver sides, there really are a huge number of options.
single fish could be any of the larger sunfish, bullheads, or smaller bass like rock bass. Your choice really.

Yes, sailfin mollies are indeed native to North America! I live in NC and I can catch them within ten or fifteen miles of me. Bluefin killies too!
