Spawning Method: Other (see below)
Sex ratio: Somewhat female heavy
Breeding difficulty: Easy
Success: Fairly unsuccessful
Other Comments: This is really fun Fish to keep. They will take flakes more readily then most killifish. It's very beautiful, the colors are simple and the fins somewhat elongated. Don't Keep them with nippy fish or it there fins will be torn apart. They prefer a planted aquarium, with some driftwood and rocks. Java moss is a great plant to keep in the tank because they spawn in it, and keeps the fry safe. The common name is the Blackspotted Topminnow. Have fun with this fish!!
