The fish are vibrant and active. I kept them in a 10-gallon tank with stable water parameters. They show natural colour changes and display behaviours, especially during breeding season. Good for experienced aquarists who understand killifish needs.
Irene Lee –
They arrived healthy and have been active since setup. The colouring is striking, and they seem to coexist well with other small fish. I adjusted the water hardness and temperature slightly to match their preferences.
Amy Terry –
The fish are beautiful but require careful monitoring. I noticed males become aggressive when kept together. I now keep them in separate tanks to avoid stress or injury.
