Is a yellow perch a 2nd level consumer
Yes. They eat many species of smaller fishes, including the yellow perch.
It helps the yellow perch catch and eat prey. They have small, fine teeth to help them catch it.
Yes. All of the Morone family of true bass are good eating. The striper, yellow, and white perch as well.
the introduction of nile perch affected the people who lived near lake victoria because the nile perch kept eating all of the little fishes which makes it hard for the people to gather food.
Pros Of The Nile Perch Introduction In Lake Victoria- *Nile Perch provide more body mass (meat) than the smaller 1-2 inch fish that people used to fish out of Lake Victoria *Since smaller boats are not large enough to catch Nile Perch in, fishing industries must catch the perch, thus creating a thriving company and providing more job opourtunities for the locals *Excess fish can be sold to other locations, bringing in money to the companies and people of Kenya and the surrounding area Cons Of The Nile Perch Introduction In Lake Victoria- *Nile perch have caused over 200 species of smaller fish in the lake to die out *Nile Perch eat smaller fish, which feed on the algae in Victoria, and that causes algae build up, and as a result, the oxygen and carbon dyoxidelevels in the water are thrown off *They were not meant to be in the Lake in the first place. They were introduced.
It is very easy to tell the difference between a yellow perch and white perch. However, many people mistake white perch for silver bass. If you eat the fish you catch, there is a big difference in the taste of white perch and silver bass. White perch are very good; silver bass are a lot fishier tasting. The easiest way to tell the difference between a white perch and silver bass is by looking at their stripes on the side of the fish. White perch only have 1 solid stripe which is high up on their back. Silver bass, on the other hand, have five stripes on their sides and appear to be more silver in color. There are other differences between the two fish and hopefully in the future I can post a photo of a silver bass alongside a white perch and describe them to you.
No, because the nile perch ate other fish and was hard for people to catch fish because there are a few not that much as they expected there to be. Also people should have not introduse nile perch to lake viktoria because that is where lots of fish swim and people usually catch them and like I have said Nile perch eat fish and only a few people catch lots of fish some catch a few and other people get hungry or starve.
Perch eat the same way that other fish do. They open their mouths, suck in the food and eat it. They eat a variety of things in the water.
No.
A pike and a pickerel are in the same family of fish so most definately not
That is definitely not a good idea. Do not eat anything from a polluted lake.
