No. What I was referring to the reduced size of "sport" fish over the decades from over fishing the breeding older fish.

Your fish looks great.

Finally some fresh water fish for Zoo Tycoon!

 

There are nearly none, though there are so many big and good looking freshwater species - sturgeons, pikes, salmons, catfish, gars, paddlefish, barbs, carps, perches, taimens, arapaimas, giant freshwater stingrays, burbot, eels, tigerfish, mahseers, anjumaras, lungfish, perches, and so on and on.

 

Only one complain - they need very deep tank. Deeper than most of ZT´s marine animals. They prefer deep waters, but they are still freshwater species, so depth in which they live is not as big as in ocean.

 

And maybe two youngs for them? They lay 30,000 eggs per kilogram of body weight, so they are quite fertile.

The Wels Catfish looks very nice in an exhibit with the trout.  They complain that they don't like each other, but it doesn't affect suitability or happiness.

They are great! Both are swimming and breeding merrily and only thing which I regret, that there are not statues from Pharoah in ZT, which I can put underwater.

 

Some nitpicking: in Alligator gar, there´s sentence ´Bluefin tuna like sea grass´ in its description. And I think this is one of the rare animals, where very rarely used Eastern USA location could be used - 2dcdaf99-33f0-41de-8993-f8c5f3d8a355.jpe

 

What woud be next? I guess sturgeon, maybe beluga, lake or european sea. Even gonna bet some Zoo Tycoon dollars on it.
