Darters

[WildernessLofts]

Does anyone have rainbow or orange-throat darters? There is a large school of them stuck in a puddle and I was wanting to bring some home and possibly breed them. Anyone know some specifics about their care? I don't really find much on the web about native US species as pets.

all you have to do is mimic the puddle pretty much.just give them some freshwater and a filter and theyll be fine if they are alive in a puddle!
