This I did not know... that's good to know harry... Thanks. I stand duly
corrected...


Apparently, it is a common mistake. The name of the fish is after its
colouration. The male has the American Flag stripes / colours on the body
and the fins - hince the name. The fish does not look like the Florida Flag
. albeit being native to the everglades.
