The copper redhorse has become endangered primarily due to habitat loss and degradation, primarily from dam construction and water pollution in its native rivers. Overfishing and competition from invasive species have further exacerbated its decline. Conservation efforts are focused on habitat restoration and population monitoring, but challenges remain in ensuring the long-term survival of this species.

Robust Redhorse was created in 1870.
The copper redhorse primarily feeds on benthic invertebrates, such as insect larvae, crustaceans, and mollusks. It forages by sifting through sediment in rivers and streams, utilizing its specialized mouth structure to effectively capture prey. This diet helps the fish thrive in its freshwater habitat, where it plays a role in the ecosystem by contributing to the control of invertebrate populations.
