NFC: Sturgeon Available



Jonah's Aquarium http://jonahsaquarium.com/  will have shovelnose sturgeon
(Scaphirhynchus platorynchus) available in a week or two.  Here's a
description of them:

Also known as the hackleback sturgeon, this sturgeon lives in much of the
same regions as the lake sturgeon but is not in the Great Lakes. The
shovelnose gets its name from the flat, broad snout. It is a small species
seldom reaching more than three feet in length or weighing more than 6
pounds. The caudal fin has a long extension which is thread-like in
appearance but may be worn off in older fish.

The sturgeon will be available in retail quantities (as many or as few as
you like) from this site:  http://jonahsaquarium.com/
