The banded killfish are populated in the northern states from South Carolina to the Dakotas.
Killfish are also known as a top minno. They are not related to the minno family. They have a round body and flat head and back. They have a mouth that turns upwards. The dorsal and anal fins are further back than other fish.
Banded killfish are also called killies. They are on the surface of fresh water and coastal marine enviroments. They are sometimes used as bait fish for catching other species.
Their color is olive brownish on their back, while silvery white on the bottom. Fins are light to yellowish olive in color. Their tail is squarish. They have rows of sharp teeth in their upper and lower jaw.
They are only about the size of a minno reaching only 2 to 4 inches in length. They prefer still moving, fresh waters, and streams. They dig down into the bottom surface when threatened. They consume insects, larva, and worms.
