Description
The coldwater darter can reach a length of 5.4 cm (2.1 in), though most only reach about 3 cm (1.2 in).[2]
Habitat and ecology
They are usually found among underwater vegetation in slow-running springs less than a meter deep. Aquatic moss, watercress, and milfoil are common habitats for the coldwater darter, as they perch on the clumps of vegetation.[1]
gollark: e.g. if you have some JS code, and you see that the author used ```javascriptfunction deployBee(){}```brackets and not```javascriptfunction deployBee() {}```ones, you need to know a bit about what JS code normally looks like to infer anything like that.
gollark: I don't think so. Things like variable names and formatting are *fairly* obvious, although you may need to read a decent sample of code in language X to learn what people generally do there regarding those, but stuff like what constructs are generally used for tasks in language X are not.
gollark: Wait, he said it *wasn't* good, oh dear.
gollark: I just implemented bubble sort, since I heard Obama saying it was good.
gollark: But working out things like "how is this styled" and "is this done idiomatically by someone who knows the language well" can require even deeper knowledge than just working out the algorithm.
