Male Gardneri Killifish are especially vibrant, displaying an array of blue, green, and red markings, while females are more muted. Their intricate colors and patterns make them a standout species in any tank.
 

These fish thrive in warm, slightly acidic water, ideally between 72-77°F (22-25°C), and prefer a well-planted tank with hiding spots. They are generally peaceful and can be kept with other small, non-aggressive fish.
 

As carnivores, Gardneri Killifish enjoy a diet of live or frozen foods like bloodworms and brine shrimp, though they may also accept high-quality pellets or flakes. Hardy and easy to care for, they are a fantastic choice for both beginners and experienced aquarists, bringing a splash of color to freshwater tanks.

The Nothobranchius eggersi, commonly known as Eggersi Killifish, is a stunningly colorful freshwater fish admired for its vibrant red and blue coloration. Native to temporary pools in Tanzania, this species is adapted to seasonal environments and typically grows to about 2 inches (5 cm) in length, making it ideal for nano or species-specific tanks.
 

Male Eggersi Killifish display striking red patterns across a blue body, while females have a more subdued, pale coloration. Their vivid hues make them a popular choice among killifish enthusiasts.
 

These fish thrive in slightly cooler, soft water, ideally between 70-75°F (21-24°C), and prefer a well-planted aquarium with hiding spots. Due to their peaceful nature and specific needs, they are best kept in species-only tanks.
 

As carnivores, they enjoy a diet of live or frozen foods like bloodworms and daphnia. With a natural lifespan of about one year, Eggersi Killifish offer a short but visually rewarding presence in freshwater aquariums.

The Golden Wonder Killifish (Aplocheilus lineatus) is a hardy and eye-catching freshwater fish known for its brilliant golden hue and striking appearance. Originating from South Asia, particularly in India and Sri Lanka, this species typically grows to about 3 to 4 inches (7.5 to 10 cm), making it suitable for medium-sized aquariums.

These fish thrive in warm water, ideally between 72-82°F (22-28°C), and prefer a tank with floating plants to mimic their natural habitat. They are generally peaceful but may prey on smaller tank mates, so they are best kept with fish of similar or larger size.
 

As omnivores, Golden Wonder Killifish enjoy a diet of high-quality flakes, pellets, and live or frozen foods such as brine shrimp and bloodworms. With proper care, they can live for up to 3-5 years, bringing color and activity to any community tank.

The Nothobranchius guentheri, or Guenther's Killifish, is a brilliantly colored freshwater species known for its resilience and adaptability to seasonal environments. Originating from East Africa, particularly in Tanzania and Kenya, this species typically grows to about 2 inches (5 cm) in length and is well-suited to smaller tanks.
 

Male Guenther’s Killifish are especially vibrant, with bright red or orange bodies adorned with blue or green speckling, while females are more muted in color. Their beauty and distinctive coloration make them highly sought-after by aquarists.
 

These fish thrive in slightly cooler, soft water, ideally between 70-75°F (21-24°C), and do best in tanks with a soft substrate and plenty of hiding spots. They are peaceful but are often kept in species-specific tanks due to their unique care requirements.
 

As carnivores, Guenther's Killifish prefer a diet of live or frozen foods like bloodworms and brine shrimp. With a natural lifespan of about one year, they are an attractive and rewarding choice for those who appreciate colorful, seasonal fish species in their aquarium.

The Nothobranchius rachovii, commonly known as the Rachovii Killifish, is a breathtakingly colorful freshwater species admired for its vibrant appearance. Native to temporary ponds in Mozambique, this killifish typically grows to about 2 to 2.5 inches (5 to 6 cm) and is known for its short lifespan, adapted to seasonal environments.
 

Rachovii Killifish males are especially striking, featuring vivid red and electric blue bands across their bodies, making them one of the most eye-catching killifish species. Females are more subdued in color, often displaying a pale silver or brownish hue.
 

These fish thrive in slightly cooler water, ideally between 70-75°F (21-24°C), and prefer a soft substrate and plenty of hiding spots. Rachovii Killifish do best in species-specific or carefully chosen community tanks due to their unique requirements and peaceful temperament.
 

As carnivores, they enjoy a diet rich in live or frozen foods like bloodworms and daphnia. With proper care, Rachovii Killifish can live for about one year, during which they display their remarkable colors and dynamic behavior, adding a splash of beauty to freshwater aquariums.

The Rocket Killifish (Epiplatys annulatus), also known as the Clown Killifish, is a small and vividly colored freshwater fish, popular for its striking appearance and peaceful nature. Native to West Africa, particularly in Guinea and Sierra Leone, this species typically grows to only about 1 to 1.5 inches (2.5 to 3.8 cm), making it ideal for nano tanks.
 

Rocket Killifish are distinguished by their elongated bodies with bold horizontal stripes in black and yellow, complemented by brightly colored red, blue, or orange tail fins that have a rocket-like pattern, hence their name. Males generally display more intense coloration than females.
 

These fish thrive in warm water, ideally between 72-78°F (22-26°C), and prefer well-planted aquariums with calm water flow. They are peaceful and do well in community tanks with other small, non-aggressive species.
 

As micropredators, Rocket Killifish enjoy a diet of small live or frozen foods like daphnia and brine shrimp, though they also accept high-quality micro pellets. Their hardy nature and stunning patterns make them a beautiful and lively addition to any small freshwater aquarium.

The American Flagfish (Jordanella floridae) is a unique and colorful freshwater fish known for its resemblance to the American flag. Native to slow-moving rivers and marshes in Florida, this species is relatively small, growing to about 2 to 2.5 inches (5 to 6 cm) in length.
 

American Flagfish are characterized by their vibrant colors, with males displaying red and blue-green stripes and a pattern of dots that resemble stars, making them a striking addition to aquariums. Females are generally less colorful but still exhibit a beautiful pattern.
 

These fish thrive in slightly cooler water, ideally between 68-75°F (20-24°C), and prefer well-planted aquariums with plenty of hiding spots. American Flagfish are peaceful but can be semi-aggressive with slow-moving or long-finned tank mates, so they do best with similarly active species.
 

As omnivores, they enjoy a varied diet, including high-quality flakes, algae wafers, and live or frozen foods like brine shrimp. They are also known for grazing on algae, helping to keep aquariums clean. With proper care, American Flagfish can live for 3-5 years, making them an attractive and functional choice for freshwater tanks.
