Just checking to see how many people have natives or have kept them in the past. If u have natives what kind? I have lots of sunfish, a bass, a bullhead, a crappie, ect.
 
I have 4 green sunfish, 4 pumpkin seeds, and 2 black bullhead in a 75 gallon. ll were caught from the wild and have adapted easily to captivity. They regularly eat pellets and stuff like small catfish and shrimp chunks. I actually got rid of my African cichlids to keep native species. Always loved to watch sunfish off the dock as a kid. They are very active and beautiful fish. Don't know why it is illegal to keep them in the US, but it's worth the minor risk.
