I caught a few of these little guys in local stream pond by the dam, I've been trying to figure out what they are seems to be jungle perch but not sure.
Jungle perch?

Hard little guys to catch but I think I get you a couple, could I send them Texas?, how?
I suppose you being in Japan is why I've never seen them in the wild haha. Thought you were in the states somewhere. I think it be be pretty darn hard to ship them here but they sure are cool looking fish!!
Thanks, I'm new to this, I have no idea about shipping fish.
I got these guys while catching feeders for my piranhas, I usually throw sinking crawdad pellet food in a net and wait for a bunch of swordtail, wild guppies, medakas, or talapia to go in the net but these guys really didn't take the bait and were really fast, so I scooped them when they'd swim over the net.
It took a while to identify them, thought they some kind of bass, but a friend said might be a perch, found it on google images. Not much info on them, mostly from sport fishing sites in Australia. They're scientific name is Kuhlia rupestris
