Anyone know if guppies would be considered an invasive species in the Potomac river?
Reason I ask is because I caught some "minnows" last summer to use for fishing & what I didn't use, I put into my aquarium. The appeared to be minnows to me, but now that I've had them for 8 months, they are starting to clean up and I can see some color in them that wouldn't be common to a minnow - at least any minnow that I know of. They also look identical as far as body shape and reproductive organs to any guppy you would see in a pet store.
Now looking at what I have, these things are all over the place. Not a snakehead or a blue catfish or a largemouth bass by any means, but if they don't belong here, wouldn't they be doing some harm too?
