experience with Killies?

As for tanks, larger is always better. A larger tank affords you more room to make mistakes, because the water chemistry is more stable, due to more water volume. Imagine a drop of food coloring in a gallon of water, as opposed to a drop in fifty-five gallons. Obviously, the latter has much less of an impact. As for research, a time when you have to work on a term paper for school and have no time isn't the best time to start a tank. WetWebMedia is the best website, in my opinion, on fishkeeping. Use the google search tool at the bottom of the page and research cycling a tank, the types of fish you want, etc. Time spent during research saves you money in the long run, not to mention fishy lives. I do not keep killifish, but keep many other fish, and I know that in some ways, fish are all alike. They're all animals who weren't meant to live in a glass box, being forced to live in a glass box. As aquarists, it is our job to do right by them.

 

Okay, then I would say definitely check out WetWebMedia.com. Fisbase.org can be helpful too, but WetWebMedia is the best. You can get info on the types of killifish, their behavior, compatible tankmates, necessary water conditions, common illnesses... everything. Plus, you can read about others' problems with the particular fish and what the WetWebMedia crew had to say about those problems, including why the problem occurred and how to fix it. And, last but not least, if you still can't find an answer to a specific question, you can e-mail and ask them directly! Definitely a wonderful site.

 

i also have some killiefish R. chuncunaque pan 2006/31, A. bitaeniatum lagos, A. australe choc bsw g97/24 port gentil, and A. gab. Marginatum hoping to breed them soon but i can't find any info on them.
