ℹ️ Overview

The Gilt darter is a small, freshwater fish noted for its distinctive, vibrant coloring, which typically includes shades of yellow and green, accented by glistening flecks that give it a gilt-like appearance. Native to certain river systems in North America, this fish features a slender body typical of darter species, with a dorsal fin that is often erect and prominent. Despite its striking appearance and interesting behavior, the Gilt darter is not widely known or common in the aquarium hobby, largely due to its specific habitat needs and perhaps its relative rarity in the wild.
