So cool dude!! IMO this is the coolest fish channel bc of your love for native fish which being from south western pa I’ve caught most these fish all my life and even kept a few myself in the past. And they are soo soo cool to watch their behaviors we don’t get to see in the wild much. And they are some of the prettiest and fascinating fish around! You don’t have to go to South America to find beautiful and aggressive fish

I agree with everything you said about native fish! Sunfish have amazing personalities and swim right up to the glass when they're comfortable with you! Some of the most aggressive fish I have are my native fish! I love to showcase the native fish because I don't think people realize the fish you can keep that are just outside your door!

The tank setup with the way you have the driftwood laid out is honestly the perfect condition that I look for when targeting the sunfish for sport in the wild🤙
