What is the trout?

trout, or maccullochella macquariensis is a large ferocious freshwater fish that is originally for Australia's waterway. It is also known as bluenose cod . The fish is an endangered species, which means that its number has fallen to the extent that there is a risk that it will disappear in the wild. It is close to Murray's cod, which is a larger predatory freshwater fish, which is known for its ability to adapt to different environments. While trout cod was described in various fish descriptions, only in 1972 was recognized as a separate species from Murray Cod. It's a big fish with an elongated body and a depressed head. His eyes are small, but are larger than Murray's eyes. The sausages move in color from light to dark gray. The dorsal fin or fins on the back fish is barbed. The largest trout was 31.5 inches (80 cm), but it is believed that fish can grow even greater.

these fish like to liveIn fast -growing water, but they do it under some form of the cover, as in rocks or on other hiding. Smaller fish tend to live around rocks, while a larger trout cod prefers to dwell in holes or deep pits. Fish are highly territorial and will prevent their areas from their own species.

As carnivores, these creatures eat smaller fish and any insects, water or earthly they can find. The fish jumps to the surface of the water in an effort to catch everything they feel that they can be edible. They can also eat crustaceans such as crayfish and freshwater shrimp. Treska trout is aggressive feeders, especially at lower temperatures.

When the fish are three to five years, they reach sexual maturity. Daily fish will emerge at the end of spring or early summer depending on when water reaches temperatures ranging from 62.6 ° to 64.4 ° F (17 ° to 18 ° C). Their eggs are glue and are usually laid along the bottom of the river or close to it.

In 1988 the fish was added toAustralian law on Flora and Fauna. This states that a fisherman cannot own, trade or catch fish without a legal permit. Previously widespread throughout Australia, the only known population is now in the Murray River. Fishing for most trout is generally prohibited. In fact, if this species is caught, while the fisherman tries to catch Murray's cod, it is recommended that the fish be released with the least damage.
