Looks just like my green sunfish did when he was small. He's about 7.5" now lol

It's a Green Sunfish, you cannot mistake this sunfish for another species since it has pretty big mouth and is slender than most sunfish species.

yup, green sunfish, even though this one looks a little red.

It's not a tropical fish but a coldwater native.
