These sunfish are distinguished by the black "ear flap" (gill cover) which has a bright red (male) or orange (female) coloring around the entire edge. They are bottomfeeders feeding mostly on snails, often called "shellcrackers" for their ability to crush the snail shells. They are a hard fighting sport fish and can also be used to control snail populations in ponds
