Re: [GSAS-Member] Room temperature tank

[Trish <snips36@yahoo.com>]

I have always wanted to keep sun perch.....they are
easy to catch, with a little food tempting them they
practicaly jump into your boat! But from what I have
read they are extreamly dirty. And besides not even
sure if it would be legal in this stae to keep them in
aquariums.
