Marcels “Lepomis gibbosus”
(pumpkinseed) in his 200 Liters Freshwatertank, with european freshwater
fish. e.g: pumpkinseed, Gudgeon and Rudds

The population of this 200 liter (53 gallon) tank:
I feed my … I feed my pumpkinseeds with flakes, tablettes, mosquito larvae and sometimes some worms. But mine aren’t really aggressive.
But they eat small fish and maybe yours ate your guppy.
hello I also had a … o I also had a sun perch, however, 20cm. He was always very aggressive and always ate!
do you think ate the guppy …
I died of old age after 6 years.
from what to eat you?
bye
The big … The big vallisnerias are from my “420 liters Asia tank” (previously one single plant from a pet store), the smaller vallisnerias in the background come from a river near my town (although they are not endemic in germany). The elodea is from an ordinary pet store, the ceratophyllum is out of my pond (I don’t know where it previously comes from) and the fontinalis is from ebay (because I couldn’t find it in the stores. It is endemic in europe/germany, but not where I live).
I don’t know. I … I don’t know. I personally wouldn’t try it.
Some natural habitats overlap, but some species need warm water, and Pumpkinseeds are more cold water fish.
i got one in a lake … i got one in a lake 2 nd mines has been livin 4 three months and if u want one to live you have to make sure u dont use a big hook use small ones so wen it goes through the mouth it wont damage its brain or sum other organ tht it needs to live an also put sum stress zyme in it if you have more questions feel free to ask
How big are they & … How big are they & where did U get them (Pet Shop, fishing)?
Try live food/frozen food (e.g. mosquito larvae) and keep on feeding flakes (just a few, when they begin eat them, more).
Your tank must have good possibilities to hide (that’s mostly the reason of staying in one corner or behind the pump). You can divide it in several areas with big roots, stones or “walls” out of plants. So they can hide for U (if they are new and shy) and can also set up their territories or hide for a dominant male
