Fish of the Day

Today's fish of the day is the arctic grayling trout!

The arctic grayling trout, scientific name Thymallus arcticus, was requested by Rion! I am always taking fish suggestions, so feel free to message with them! Native to North America, and other areas in the arctic. This fish can mostly be found in Alaskan rivers, branching further into Canada, and across the arctic. Some populations have found their ways into rivers and lakes across the rocky mountains and into the Great Lakes of Michigan. And although this fish is not native to the Columbia basin, or the Mississippi, but has been found in both in the past. They can be found only in cold, clear water, and although coloration changes from population to population, they can be identified by the red fringe across the dorsal fin.

Arctic graylings can be found only in cold, clear water, and although coloration changes from population to population, they can be identified by the red fringe across the dorsal fin. The arctic grayling's diet consists of small fish and insects. Although, they're not picky and will eat anything that will fit in their mouth. This diet supports them reaching around 30 inches in length, and about 8 pounds. They are predated on by fish eating birds, larger fish, and mammals that catch them.

Spawning takes place in the spring, and only in areas with a fine sandy bottom, and a slow to moderate current. Courting is done by flashing the dorsal fins, and mates are chosen often by the starkest color. Eggs are then left behind, and will hatch within 2 weeks. Arctic graylings grow up quickly, and will reach sexual maturity within 2 years of hatching.

Have a good day, everyone!

they’re not fish, but since it’s World Octopus Day (and also World Lesbian Day) might we get some octopus content? (or lesbian fish facts, if you prefer)

Hmm... alright. Octopuses have donut-shaped brains, which wrap around their esophagus! There, octopus fact.

Here's a fish fact about lesbian fish too, for World Lesbian Day :) (Before you mention the Amazon molly, I have made fish facts on them in the past and simply don't want to repeat myself. I recommend checking them out overall because they're 100% female fish!)

Arctic grayling!

There are several different populations of arctic grayling: some that both live and spawn in rivers, some that live in lakes and spawn in rivers, and some that live and spawn in lakes! Female (and male) arctic graylings have been found to exhibit homosexual behaviour.
