Hi All,

If any of you watch the "Animal Planet" channel, then you may have seen
the show about the Fathead minnow, Pimephales promelas. This was a highly
entertaining presentation on the life cycle and behavioral aspect of the
fish!
One of the film segments showed the male Fathead guarding the eggs and
cleaning the underside of the rock  where the eggs were incubating.

Please see John Acorn's shows if you haven't already done so. The name of
the show is "The Nature Nut" and is very educational, while also being
entertaining.
For more information on the series, see www,greatnorth.ab.ca .

Regards,       

BG
