That's analogous to the pikeminnow name logic. A sucker that looks like a
carp; a minnow that looks like a pike.
>trout-perch ....... it's not a trout, nor is it a perch
Poor guy deserves something uniquely its own, but I see the logic behind
that name all the same.
>pirate perch ........ it's not a perch
Better than one name I saw for that fish (based upon it's anatomy)! :-)
