I did a bit of pond dipping with my landing net at a local pit and caught some little silver fish.
I noticed they are deep bodied and have iridescent scales (can't really see on the pics). They are only small at around 2".
Would i be correct in thinking they are ....
Apparently they were popular as aquarium pets as early as 1920s when they were released in the uk. My county is one of about 3-4 places they are found.
