Killifish

  • Thread starter Daniel

Well this recent Sunday was a big day for killifishers. The Chicago Killifish Association recently had a big day. We even had a guest speaker name Rosario LaCorte, his speech was filled with great tips, and it was just fascinating to listen to him.

But that wasn't the best part. I recieved a Gold Australe, and some Gardeneri "misaje" eggs. These fishes are just bueatiful and great to have.

I will post pictures right when my sister buys me a camera

Special thanks goes to Bobby, he introduced me into killifish, and they are something you'll never regret.

Daniel-
 
Gold Australe are very pretty killies. I bred them years ago.
Get some pics up then. I with I had some extra room for some again. I'm just about ready to set up a 29 gallon tank to raise my discus fry.

only in the wild when their ponds dry up. in captivity they live forever as long as you dont let them dry out

Strangely enough there was a discovery show on tonight that had a little segment on Killifish, I think it was one of the "Most Extreme" shows that are on.
Interesting fish, though they didnt show any species variety. Are they pretty colorful? I just have boring old Oscars (8" & 12").

As far as looks go, some are rather plain but most are really beautiful.  Take a look at the AKA Gallery.

Do you have any experence with freshwater aquariums???


There ae lots of tropical fish enthusiests here. you can ask them questions
 
i have experience with freshwater aquariums and making water gardens. my step father has a water garden that has koi fish. it's beautiful. i know it's hard work and very expensive with saltwater aquariums but it's something I have always had a passion to do. I take good care of fish and I'm always cautious with them.
