| Thats a male creek chub in spawning mode, im not sure on exact species though. He will loose the tubricles and reddish coloring sooner or later. | |

| oooh cool, would they do okay in a cichlid tank at around 80 degrees? or should i just let him go? How big will he get? | |

| It would only get to be a foot long max but i think at 80 degrees he wouldnt last long. I'm sure they would do fine in aquariums just not heated ones since they come from small creeks and streams that have much cooler water. | |

| yeah thats what i was thinking i dont have a specific tank for him though so i will probably just let him go, all my tanks are heated to around 75-80 we hand caught like 30 of them today but let them all go but him so i know where to find them if i ever want to set up a tank for one though! | |

| Nice. If you ever do, brown trout live fine in room temp aquariums and are awesome tank mates for chub | |
