Can anyone ID this sunfish?

This guy came in with a bunch of rosy reds, and I first thought it was a baby bluegill. Did some googling and found some info in green sunfish. It kinda looks like it could be both, but I'd like a confirmation if possible.

Thanks!

Beauuuutiful fish!

Great little fish. Has already started begging, and was totally unfazed with me working in the tank. Its got a LOT of personality, so I'm calling it "Sunshine".

I would keep an eye on it with other fish. Greens aren't known for their sunny disposition.

Just don't put any other sunfish or bluegill in unless you want WWIII

It's currently in my 180g with a 3-4 inch bichir. I'm going to be moving my rather large tinfoil barb, 6 inch bichir, and three large Dennison's barbs into this tank. Will be adding more tinfoils, but increasing the Dennison group will have to wait until I can find ones large enough.
