Splendid darter

The Splendid darter is a small, vibrant fish known for its splendid colors, typically boasting hues of blue, green, or yellow along its body, which contribute to its standout appearance in freshwater habitats. Native to North America, it has a slender body shape typical of the darter species, with pointed fins and a streamlined appearance that allows it to navigate swiftly through water. Despite its eye-catching looks, the Splendid darter isn't as well-known or as commonly kept in the aquarium hobby compared to more popular ornamental fish, partially due to its specific care requirements and the availability issues related to its natural habitats.
