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.
