Special Notices

As all know our general supplier for aquarium fish LiveAquaria.com and Drs. Foster & Smith (same company) ended their online sales business, due to state online sales tax issues. Thus links on fish for sale no longer work as 02/22/10.

We are changing our tropical fish suppliers now to "Aquarium-Club MEMBERS ONLY", so please stop back, because we will have more tank raised fish shortly,

15 years of selling tropical fish online and safely shipping fish and supplies to thousands of satisfied customers, without any complaints!!!

Buy blockii

Native Habitat:  Asia: India, Pakistan and Sri Lanka. Inhabits stationary and sheltered waters of rivers. Found under the surface in still waters, mainly coastal and often brackish, especially where there is surface vegetation or cover, such as mangrove swamps and rice fields. Swims slowly or stays stationary, often in small groups. Feeds on insects, larvae and fish fry. Valuable for mosquito control.
Temperament:    Males are a little aggressive, certainly when breeding with females. Therefore best kept in trios, rather than pairs.
Feeding:    Some flake foods high in protein and adult brine shrimp, along with live foods such as grindal worms, white worms, Daphnia, Moina, and newly hatch brine shrimp nauplii
Sexing:    Males more colorful and with display fins
Comments:    Good first killifish. Very hardy and prolific non-annual plant spawner
