I think we might be talking about 2 different "perch" fish
Is this it?
That's a european redfin perch (Perca fluviliatis). The american yellowfin perch (perca flavescens) has yellow fins (obviously) and stays smaller, but is otherwise the same.

I wouldn't do SMB because of the aggression issues. White bass will do better in groups than solo white bass, so no I wouldn't do white bass. Yellow bullhead have fast growth rates so I will add him to your stock later to prevents eating other tankmates.
You can find some populations of drum that won't grow big as their average size would be between 13-15" in these populations. Their growth rate is very slow and any drum over 20" is very old fish.
Honestly I would forget SMB, they are not community fish and they are more likely will killing their tankmates unless you want a solo fish. He will kill your pleco as well.I might risk it with the SMB but we'll see in time. Alright so a drum would be better than a white bass then, good to know. Other than hat am I good, not overstocked or anything?

I don't think you are overstocked.
You shouldn't have any problems with ordering them online?Endangered in PA.
Maybe make it a south american biotope with a huge shoal of cory cats, some kind if pim, a school of tetras, less aggressive cichlids, ect.
Personally what I'd do is put a stingray and some angelfish and a large amount of schooling fish or a large pair of ca or sa cichlids like umbees.
