Very hard to tell from that photo. But if it came from a LFS, I'd bet bluegill.

Thanks, he is pretty dark and less red than the pic. Verticle stripes with a eye spot on dorsal and blue green stripe on the gill plate.

He's very cool and already a tiny bully. I guess my sucker will be safe. Its pretty big and still growing. My seminole killie better start growing or I'll have to move it. And the gambusia, oh well.

Allow me to place a vote for Martin (Irate Mormon) in favor of "green sunfish". They always are.
