Fishes such as Bluegill, Longear, and redbrest sunfish start out a zooplanktivores. They consume zooplankton until they are large enough to begin eating insects. When keeping them in captivity, they will survive well on a variety of insects that they are able to fit into their mouths. If they h ave been farm raised or fed fish food pellets in a pond then they will aslo do well eating that in an aquarium. Hikari brand food, the package that is sold for Cichlids such as Oscars, will work well.

Crickets, small worms, Spiders, sometimes cut up pieces of minnow

They pretty much eat any kind of small insects and worms.

Agree with second answer, in Midwest a sunfish is similar to a blue gill and very edible and very tasties, although takes quite a few to make a mess.

no

Another AnswerMaybe what you call a sunfish is different than me. But "sunfish" is a broad class of fish that includes bass, crappie, and brim. All of these are edible, and in fact are the best tasting of fish, if you ask me.

Ocean sunfish are native to the temperate and tropical waters in every ocean in the world. Sunfish are pelagic and swim at depths of up to 600 m (2,000 ft). Contrary to the general perception that sunfish spend much of their time basking at the surface, research suggests that adult M. mola actually spend a large portion of their lives submerged at depths greater than 200 m (660 ft)

I have never heard of a sunfish, but people eat anything that is an eatable food- and it sounds eatable.

Ocean sunfish primarily eat jellyfish. They also eat many other things, such as crustaceans, smaller fish, the larvae of fish, eel grass, squid, and salps.
