I was reading this link that I found on the ERC website,
http://www.unb.ca/courses/biol4775/SPAGES/SPAGE22.HTM#Physostomous%...
I was wondering what type of swim bladder system musky’s have, are they physostomous fish or physoclistous fish?

Thanks

physostomous,

almost all the freshwater fish we have are. Physoclistous fish live more in the oceans where they go to greater depths and need to internally regulate their swimbladders.

cool stuff.
