Shellcrackers are Redear Sunfish, not Pumpkinseeds.  Here's a nice thread with pictures and descriptions of common sunfish - http://www.pondboss.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Numb...

 

Dwayne I've been confused in the past as well.

Thanks John and Josh, those links cleared a lot up for me.
Got a book yesterday, has all the sunfish in it. I did not know there where so many. Book says so much cross breeding going on, getting harder to tell.
