I just brought home some kind of Fundulus I found in the lfs's feeder shrimp tank. Are there any good resources online for ID'ing these guys? Obviously I'm hampered by the lack of collection locality data, but I didn't want to just picturebook him.

I'll post a picture of him when I can, but I would like to at least take a whack at ID'ing him first.

I've only found two Fundulus species in feeder tanks personally, Seminole Killifish and Golden Topminnows. There is a good chance it is one of those two.

Thanks, guys. It's definitely not a chrysotus, but seminolis is a possibility. I'll keep looking and see what I can find. There don't seem to be many images of some of these species on the web.
