Description
The green sunfish(Lepomis cyanellus) prefers slow-moving bodies of fresh water with sandy or rocky bottoms. They eat insects, zooplankton, crayfish, snails, and other invertebrates. Green sunfish males often build nests in close proximity to others, including other sunfish species. The proximity means some females deposit eggs in the wrong nest, resulting in hybridized offspring.
