This was caught in the Mad River in Ohio. Is it a sand shiner? Someone told me what it was, but I forgot. ](*,)

Thanks guys! I didn't remember any of those going in my bucket.

I haven"t lost any. but I've had a few cases of fungus. I treated the tank with Maroxy. Again. I think the fungus is still lurking in there from this summer's fish. Is that likely? Or possible?

I thought you wanted a few, sorry if you didn't!

It can be a general problem that is just stress related, I don't think it ever "goes away" because it's on the fish. That's one case for quarantine.

No, I like them. I was bummed when the other ones I had died! I just forgot.

I suspected as much.

Dang it, I spoke too soon. Just found a piece of blacknose dace jerky on the floor. I had great hopes for the "fish fence," but it isn't high enough. I ordered some black egg crate to cover the tank with.
