Buggy Code? Please help.

I can't for the life of me figure out why it won't accept this. I have stared at it for about 30 mins.

<?php

class Fish {
    public $common_name;
  public $flavor;
  public $record_weight;

function __construct($name, $flavor, $record){
  $this->name = $common_name;
  $this->flavor = $flavor;
  $this->record = $record_weight;

    }
}
?>```

Jeff, Thank you so much! You are Awesome!!!!! I hate that it was right under my nose the whole time. I don't like throwing in the towel but I would have never got that one without your help.
