Who Gives A Fish Forums

anyone know what type of fish are in brisbane's freshwater lakes and rivers thanks

You can catch Melanotaenia duboulayi, Rhadinocentrus ornatus, and Pseudomugil signifer in Brisbane's freshwater lakes and rivers. Galaxias sp. might also be present, and possibly a native pygmy perch. Non-native species like cichlids or livebearers may be found too, as they've been released into the wild.

I found some info on Melanotaeniidae and Pseudomugilidae - check out this site: rainbowfish.angfaqld.org.au. For more on the ecology of Australian freshwater fishes, there's a book by CSIRO that's worth a read: www.publish.csiro.au.
