Creek chub.
I don't know what it is, but it doesn't look like a creek chub to me.

Any other thoughts?
edit: This was caught in Hamlin Lake in Smethport, PA. I believe this is part of the upper Allegheny River drainage. I doubt that info will make too much difference but I figured I would throw it in here.

One other thing about this fish is that it was in quite a large school in the lake I got it from. I don't know if that information helps at all to determine this fish between the species that it could be.

I'm hoping that I can catch some more of these for my tank.

Having done a major interstate move myself a little over a year ago, I would think again about getting new fish a couple months prior. Moving tanks is a pain as it is, and the fish make it more stressful (for you and them). Just my take on it.

Hey Alter,
Having done a major interstate move myself a little over a year ago, I would think again about getting new fish a couple months prior. Moving tanks is a pain as it is, and the fish make it more stressful (for you and them). Just my take on it.
I won't be adding any more fish to this tank till I know exactly what is going on. When started this tank I actually didn't have plans of moving, but something came up quick so I'm hoping that the fish will survive the move.
For now its going to just be collecting and releasing fish back into the water.
