The Fathead Minnow primarily feeds on algae, small invertebrates, and detritus. In a natural environment, they consume a diet rich in zooplankton and aquatic plants. They also feed on microorganisms and organic matter found in their habitat. This varied diet helps support their growth and reproduction in freshwater ecosystems.
Fathead minnow was created in 1820.
The seven levels of classification are Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus and Species. Respectively, a fathead minnow is Animalia, Chordata, Actinopterygii, Cyprinformes, Cyprinidae, Pimephales and P. promelas.

The scientific or taxonomic name would be Pimephales promelas.

When owning a fish it is important to know what they eat. A minnow will eat fish food flakes that are made for it to eat. Make sure the fish flakes are meant for minnow.

yes
if one is a lot bigger than the other,it's possible but it rarely happens.
a mosquito fish will jump out of the water to get a bug and usually a rosey red or minnow as you called it they usually dont a mosquito fish usually has stripes and a rosy red is pretty small like a tetra and is usually pink in color and you can see their insides.
