RE: [GSAS-Member] Room temperature tank
This thread is making me hope the NANFA guy comes to a GSAS meeting soon :)
I'd love to have a little Missouri Bluegill to claim for a tank.
Growing old is inevitable; growing up is optional.

Whoops!!!!!! My mistake. The Pumkin Seed is a Yellow
Perch.
The Sun Perch is also know as Brim,Perch,Sun Perch,
Bream, and Sun Fish.
The Perch I am talking about are small and
round....with spiny dorsal fins, and have lots of
yellow on their belly's, and almost rainbow dots on
their sides....very pretty.
Maybe someday I'll be able to try and keep them. The
problem with this is talking Hubby into another
tank.....LoL. Which I don't think will happen any time
soon! He has a hard enough time with me keeping 6! But
I say, "Hey whats ONE more!"
