 * Symbol question.svg Hook cannot be used, and fact should be changed in article I'm afraid: ref says Unknown; probable bait bucket release. Will continue with review upon reply. Thanks, Mat  ty  .  007  16:06, 29 July 2014 (UTC)

ALT 1: ... that baby Lythrurus ardens grow to three-fifths of their adult size within a year?
 * Sorry, please can you quote for me from the source, I couldn't see it but it's probably me being blind as a bat. No close paraphrasing (some unaviodable occurances of similar wording), QPQ done, article is new enough, long enough, and neutral. Thanks, Mat  ty  .  007  08:50, 30 July 2014 (UTC)

I've added a new DYK hook. This one is stated with certainty within the text. Spirit of Eagle (talk) 01:13, 30 July 2014 (UTC)
 * ALT 2: ...that Lythrurus ardens and Longear sunfish lay their eggs in the same nest and work together to defend them from predators?
 * I probably deserve a pretty massive trout about this, but the 3/5s information came from another species on the same page as the Lythrurus ardens. I've corrected everything and made a new hook. Spirit of Eagle (talk) 02:57, 31 July 2014 (UTC)
 * I wondered if I was going blind or if you were on the wrong page... With the current hook, the source says spawning occurred in association with the longear sunfish, and the nest was guarded by both species, not that they lay their eggs in the same nest necessarily. A hook based on that fact would likely work though. Thanks, Mat  ty  .  007  08:21, 31 July 2014 (UTC)


 * ALT 3: ...that Lythrurus ardens and Longear sunfish work together to defend their nests from predators?
 * I've corrected the hook to remove references to the two species of fish sharing the nest. Spirit of Eagle (talk) 23:46, 31 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Will this hook work? Spirit of Eagle (talk) 03:15, 6 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg Good to go relying on previous review. Thanks, Mat  ty  .  007  07:57, 6 August 2014 (UTC)
