I think I caught this one near the red river or possibly near Rockcastle River and had an ID on it originally but not really sure now. I moved it to my 3 gallon picotope because its back fin was getting picked on. Any help with this ID would be great, thanks! Sorry, I have some algae on the side of the tank there, but these are the best I could do.

I think female rainbow, but remind me today and I'll take a look at it.

Might be female rainbow, hard to tell. Plenty of them in the Red. I have to get back down there, lost my last emerald darter, and that one frecklebelly is looking lonely, needs a buddy.

I was digging around my creek today, and found two very fat female rainbows. Also found scads of baby banded sculpins, so they've already done their thing.

Yeah I have another female rainbow, and I dont think they are the same. This one has more of a diamond pattern on its side, and a lot more slender. I dunno, I am possibly the worst at ID'ing these guys
