Salmons come in a wide variety of shapes, sizes and colors.
They can be bright reds to bright greens to dark, dull blacks and browns to spotted generic black and white colors. Salmons are lighter in color underneath their bodies compared to the darker shades you'll see on top. They are generally long, thin fish with up-turned snouts. The fins on some salmons are quite gorgeous, being nice and rounded fins near their gills to rounded tails. Their dorsal fins are generally fairly close to their tails.
