Other Fundulopanchax Species |
Killifish of the
Fundulopanchax genus are those found in the western part of Africa. Of all
of the species in this genus, Garderni are the most abundant and diverse.
Gardneri and Filamentosum are species well suited for someone trying their first
killifish and can be water incubated, but still do best if allowed to spend some
time in very moist peat before being put into a hatching tray.
Most species in the Fp.
genus are plant spawners, but the Fp. Sjoestedti (Blue Gularis) as an example is
a substrate spawner, requiring the eggs be stored in peat moss during a diapause
period for a few months and then hatched by adding the peat and eggs to a small
container of water. However, it seems most of th Fundulopanchax species do
well if the eggs are allowed to slowly develop in very moist peat moss for 30-45
days before adding more water for hatching
