California Delta Fish?
- Thread starter Mekong
- Start date
Is there really that big of a selection of real CA delta natives most of them are really rare of endangered? Most of the fish we catch from the delta are introduced from other parts of the US...Mekong;2231255;2231255 said:
mekong,
i don't know if they're native delta fish, but i've got a sacramento sucker in my 180g, seems like a fairly un-interesting fish. i'd love to try getting some pike minnows(although i'm not sure if a permit would be involved, i'll have to ask a DFG officer) i've also got green sunfish(not native) and they're pretty cool, i've also got a young channel catfish(not native) but he's a wuss and i don't ever see him come out.

mekong, here is an excellent site that has a lot of info about california native fish, and you can search by location if you want to do a biotope type setup or by species if you just want a california native tank. http://calfish.ucdavis.edu/
Wow, thanks for that website. It has alot of good info. I wish they would say where the non native originally come from and where they have been or can be found in CA.
