What Garter Do I Have?

[Cazador]

"Crowding" was my word, but they report as mass of fish per liter of water (eg. 5 grams / Liter). The point they're making is that fish can live and grow at high densities. They just won't grow as fast, and mortality rates are higher at greater density.

Well, if they are going by mass/volume I suppose you could take that to mean 1 big fish or 10 smaller ones. This is a snake forum however and I am sorry to take the discussion away from them.

No worries, Steve. It's certainly not the first time we've gotten off topic, and I'm certain it won't be the last. I tend to think that friendly discussions are a bit more important than sticking strictly to the point . I'm sure I'm not alone in that sentiment, either, as long as the main questions get answered .

Looks like an eastern garter to me also...fromwhat I could see, looks like a male, but the pictures weren't quite enough for me to say for sure....
