Hello. I'm from Kentucky as well and was wondering if you would disclose where you found the Saffron and Scarlet Shiners. I will be moving to an apartment soon and will want fish for my 100 gal aquarium. The Saffrons intrigue me.

The Saffrons came from the Pigeon Forge TN area. They are very common in that area. The Scarlets are very common here in KY. I have found them in many small to mid-sized creeks and streams.

HERE is a link that will give you an idea of what fish are in what area here in KY. Being in Louisville, you won't find a lot in the city, but you're not far from some exciting species. You can head south toward Mammoth Cave area for some interesting darters, or toward Central KY. Scarlet shiners may be found around the Shelbyville area.
