Hey guys great to be part of the forum. I'm a student at Oklahoma State in the fisheries and aquatic ecology major. I currently have a 55 gal native tank with 3 log perch, 3 orange spotted sunfish, and a slender mad tom. I'm also helping logperchie with the two 225 gal tanks on campus. We are planning a collecting trip this weekend so hopefully I'll have a few more darters to add to my tank.

Hello Matt, welcome to the forum. Orangespots are suddenly popular here, maybe because have difficulties finding them. I have five subadults in a 55-gal. tank and they're interesting, feisty fish.

Ya I lucked into a good place to find orange spotted sunfish about a week ago, looking for gambusia. I caught dozens of them all pretty small about an inch but all with great color.

Welcome matt, ive been looking for orange spots for quite awhile maybe youll have some luck in spawning them so they will become more available in the hobby, I have a couple of good leads im gonna check out in the spring, Trying to collect as many of my own fish as i can. But there are so many great ones to aquire and study and so little time LOL. Anyway, welcome aboard
