Setting up a 75 gallon native species tank for a Nature Center
Hi, I'm helping set up a 75 gallon tank for mainly sunfish and hopefully some other species native to Minnesota, perhaps a crayfish as well.
Does anyone have some suggestions for me? Thanks so much, Julie

Id avoid the crawfish, snails, catfish or bass.
Crawfish will take your minnows, snails will overbreed the tank, catfish and bass will take everything.

It was fun setting up. We found rocks and wood from the surrounding area.

They are like our little puppies. They come over so excited when we arrive & follow us as we walk past the tank.
