A relationship based on 27 populations of tiger muskie from 9 states was used to develop a specific equation for tiger muskie and computed that c = 0.00008035 and b = 3.337. [15] This relationship predicts that a 84 cm (33 in) tiger muskie will weigh about 4.5 kg (10 lb) , and a 120 cm (47 in) tiger muskie will weigh about 14 kg (30 lb).
Muskellunge are found in oligotrophic and mesotrophic lakes and large rivers from northern Michigan, northern Wisconsin, and northern Minnesota through the Great Lakes region, Chautauqua Lake in western New York, north into Canada, throughout most of the St Lawrence River drainage, and northward throughout the upper Mississippi valley, although the species also extends as far south as ...

[87] [88] Among the largest of the characin family is the popular sport-fish, the golden dorado (Salminus brasiliensis), which can reach up to 1 m (3.3 ft) in length and weigh 31.4 kg (69 lb). [89] Among the characins are the infamous neotropical piranhas.
The teeth sit outside of the mouth, interlocking, with two large lower fangs that curl upward reaching past the fish’s eyes. Because its jaw can unhinge, the viperfish can eat large prey for its ...
A new study has uncovered a tiny fish species’s ability to produce a huge sound. Danionella cerebrum is 10 to 12 millimeters, or about 0.4 to about 0.5 inches, long and lives in shallow, murky ...
