Thanks. About spotfin chub [aka. turquoise shiner:-)] after all reintroductions
and habitat improvements are they getting less rare? I hope such a beauty won't
have to be on endangered/threatened species list forever... Also, isn't the arrow
darter suppose to be rare in TN or is it that it is in a danger zone [to habitat
destruction]?
