Museum[]
An information board in the aquarium will provide information about this fish.
"The spotted pattern on cherry salmon serves as camouflage and is rather common in all salm
on. Most cherry salmon spend their lives in rivers, but some do migrate to the ocean to fully mature. They are popular with anglers because of their well-balanced physique and beautiful patterns. Plus, their nervous nature makes them a good challenge to catch, which just adds to the fun."
