Hey all, Beings I've dealt with GSH on a very limited basis in the larger lakes I deal with, I find myself a bit perplexed at trying to understand the golden shiner.
I noticed while watering some new grass at the pond yesterday afternoon that I was seeing a couple of GSH just slowly swimming at the surface so I made a full walk-around and noted 5 total. On the way around I found 2 dead lodged up in the riprap. Within 2 hours all 5 of the surfacers were dead and slowly floated to shore.
Nearly calm for western KS yesterday, 5-7 mph NW wind.
Going to take a look here shortly but not understanding if GSH are just super delicate or if I need to be looking into something else.
In my experience fish just don't die (more than 1) at the same time for no reason. Any insight on GSH habits would be much appreciated.
Thanks guys.
Additional question.. are GSH touchy about DO levels compared to other species??
