1. 3 or 4 each of blackbanded sunfish, bluespotted sunfish, 3 swamp darters, 3 lined topminnows(1 male 2 females), 1-3 hogchockers (sand substrate)
2. 3 or 4 each of banded sunfish, 3 eastern mudminnows, 2 pirate perch, 3 lined top minnows, 1 or 2 tadpole madtoms - all these guys are pretty tough.

I like Mike's ideas here... and would just offer a variation on the theme... I have successfully kept bluespotted and bandeds together, so I would have a few of them and then add a few taillight shiners and a pair of fundulus (cingulatus would be my choice here) and a single tadpole madtom. All of these are southern slackwater species. All adapt quckly to aquarium life. The shiners would add a little bit of movement, and the F. cingulatus add lots of color.1. 3 or 4 each of blackbanded sunfish, bluespotted sunfish, 3 swamp darters, 3 lined topminnows(1 male 2 females), 1-3 hogchockers (sand substrate)

Awesome suggestions so far, keep them coming!
My only question is where to source these fish given I am located in the Midwest...
Come on down! There are lots of memers down here that would be willing to go out with you.
