Notes |
Freshwater Perches are northern-hemisphere fishes, with some than 200 species found in the freshwater systems of North America, Europe and Asia. The Redfin Perch has become a popular target for freshwater anglers, as it can reach up to 50 cm in length, fights hard and is an excellent food fish. source : Swainston’s Fishes of Australia |
