IDs Please (Quick Answers Much Appreciated!)

Kind of went crazy collecting tonight after I built my new and first seine. Took home 1 either Stoneroller or sucker, 6 species of dace, 1 I have no idea but some type of minnow, and 5 darters of the same species. Please ID these fish the best you can. Thanks!!!

1) Either Stoneroller or some type of sucker.


2) I THINK SRBDs but could be wrong. 2/6 have faint red stripes.


3) Some species of Darter


4) Literally no clue other than a small minnow. Thought it was a small rainbow trout when I first saw it. Has a few speckles, a pink stripe and had a greenish hue when I caught it.


Thanks for for the help guys!

The river they came from would be helpful, the sucker looks a bit like a jumprock.

Could the minnow be a rosyface shiner?

Think you may have figured out number 2

Ok so so far I have figured out.

1) ???
2) Notropis rubellus (Rosyface Shiners)
3) Etheostoma sp:???
4) ???

Good work so far with number 2 but anybody feel free to answer the others best you can.

Any input for 1? I think it's the most important to figure out since I'm about 95% sure it's a sucker now and I've heard they need to be grazing on food all day in captivity. I'm not exactly sure what to feed a sucker that my voracious creek chubs won't eat first.

Bump. Any more opinions? Kind of getting desperate since if it is a sucker what should I feed it and how often?
