Secondly, has anyone kept this species (or member of this species group)?
Mine is still freaked out in a 10 gal. tank, but that should pass.
Interestingly, I caught this guy in a small creek essentially in downtown
Scottsboro. This species is described as confined to large, flowing river
habitats. The Tennessee River is only about 2-3 km away, maybe this one was
dumped by someone after fishing. I'm going back at some point to see if more
of them exist in this creek (a very public netting site, something I usually
avoid, but curiousity calls).
Anyway, happy new year and I hope I don't break out our lamp oil!
