Identify this fish

Post by **redletterdays** » Tue Sep 07, 2010 7:36 pm

So I like aquariums, I have a nice tropical aquarium. This is what it looks like

Now I like fishing and I've been catching some pretty standard stuff in my minnow trap [catfish, shiners, crappies]

And then this guy. I've had this guy for about 2 months now and I am still unsure what he is.. Could you please help?

Thanks[/img]

Perhaps the fish in the 2nd photo is a Log Perch.

Folks here should also take note of how those fish in the first photo are relating to rock and weed transition....

Those are the only type I get in the pond at home. They are resilient little buggers; not as flashy as a shiner by a long shot but you only need one for the whole ice fishing season!
