I puchased a sole about eight weeks ago. The shop keeper told me it was a fresh water sole. Soles are quite rare apparently, and when i read up on them on the web, it said that most of them prefer brackish water as they get older. I went back to the shop and told the guy this but he didn't seem to know much. Anyway it lived for about three weeks then died. It did eat food so it didn't die of stravation as alot of them do. Anyway my boyfriend brought three more soles yesterday, they are babies, they are the same size as ten pence piece and the shop keeper told him they will only grow to four inches. Scott asked the shop keeper if they are def fresh water, and he assured him they were. The thing is how can we be sure. I don't want them to die from being in the wrong type of water. Is there anyone out there who knows about fresh water soles and wot they look like, so we know for sure they are the fresh water variety. Thankyou
