Re: NFC: 110 gal set-up for sunfish etc.
Sounds like a neat setup, Ray. I agree that the high fish density helps to
disperse aggression. I'm not sure how other minnows, such as redbellies,
would have fared in there. I routinely crowd my fish and that seems to
work. I also sort by family for the most part. I usually don't keep
minnows with sunfish other than Enneacanthus. I have kept a very
aggresssive blacknose dace with sunnies and logperch too. I keep tadpole
madtoms with them with lots of hiding places. Bullheads do fine until they
get big enough to eat the sunnies. Would like to see your tanks some time.

those people shouldn't be keeping native fish, they spread them
