What natives do you keep?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Just curious about what natives everyone is keeping now and what species are you looking for.

I am down to one native tank these days, need to set up more.
Currently I have

3x Ctenogobius shufeldti - freshwater goby <---- my favorite right now
2x Lepomis symmetricus - bantam sunfish
1x Aphredoderus sayanus - pirate perch
1x Poecilia latipinna - sailfin molly
2x Fundulus chrysotus -golden topminnow 1 male and 1 female
?? Gambusia affinis - goby and pirate perch eat more each day

I am looking to get a flier, they shoud be in season soon.
 
I have a 10in sunfish right now. I want to get a bowfin, but don't have the tank space for on right now.
 
I've been looking for a small bowfin too. From what we have seen on the bayou this year it was a very poor year class. I hope we can breed in the lab next spring.
 
I have a bullhead and two small channel cats in a large indoor pond, as well as three green sunfish. Also a small chub of some kind in with some tropicals.
