Tequila Splitfin, sometimes known simply as the Tequila fish, Zoogoneticus tequila, is a species of goodeid fish (family Goodeidae).[2] It is endemic to Mexico. Its current distribution is restricted to a single spring pool in Teuchitlán, only 4 metres (13 ft) in diameter, where a population consisting of less than 50 adult fish live.[3] It was generally thought to inhabit rivers, and it was already considered Extinct in the Wild, before the discovery of the pool population in 2000/2001.[1]
