What particular shiners are you interested in? Regional guidebooks often have this kind of information. For example, Robison and Buchanan give such data for individual species discussed in _Fishes of Arkansas_. In general, the temperature best for a given fish in aquaria is the same as the temperature-in-which it is found in nature.
