Fishy ID?

[Zari]

Got this guy with a dozen rosy red minnows, and I think its safe to say hes not a rosy red. So what is he?

 

[fwprawn]

A wild colored Rosy Red

 

[Zari]

Nope, hes shaped a bit diffrently then the rosy reds, and hes a bit bigger then even the biggest adults I have

Looks like a darter

 

[Zari]

Won't disagree but it looks like most if not all darters have 2 dorsal fins he has one.

fathead minnow

fathead minnow

Agreed, after looking at some on google..they look exactly alike

 

[Zari]

hum, rosy red's are fatheads tho just a color morph. So if he indeed is a fat head wtf are my rosy reds because his bigger and different then then all the rosy reds in my pond -shrug- Oh well even if hes just a plain old fathead he still gets to stay in the community tank cuz hes different looking lol.

He's probably dominant male.
