      The sailfin tetra is very territorial. Keep in low numbers. Males get very beautiful.

      I had sailfin tetras some years ago.. Found them beautiful, but a bit agressive, they took out all my neons over a period of 2-3 months....

    #1: Those swordtail tetras look SO MUCH LIKE furcatus rainbows (pseudomugils...);
    #2: That "slow jazz" clip of the sailfin @ ~12:00 is absolutely brilliant editing, Bob. AAA+++

    The advantage of internal fertilization -more of the eggs get fertilized and since the female lays them alone, there's less fish around to eat the eggs.

    The swordtail tetra was often portrayed in older books (approx. 1970) about the hobby (in german aqu.literature) , the first time I see them at a shop.. Pitty they are so rare here. Thank you for the entertaining documentation. Cheers from Austria.

    such cool fish, I remember decades ago that you could occasionally find Swordtail tetras at the LFSs

    Ok, those moenkhausia collettii are pretty amazing. It's interesting that the red in the tail fin goes so far up the body. Normally, when the tail color doesn't continue all the way up the body, it is really just limited to the fin it's self. And that oddball one is crazy.

    The one with the iriscident scales...keep that one and try to breed it and then breed back and see whether the descendants carry that trait of the gold scales?

    • @wishitwasallflat201
      @wishitwasallflat201 Рік тому

      Coloration in fishes is typically produced and controlled by specialized cells called chromatophores. The metallic hues exhibited in wild H. rodwayi, on the other hand, are quite different, being produced by a cutaneous reaction to a parasitic trematode. The golden shine can be linked to guanin, a substance that is secreted by the skin as a protection against trematode infestation. This fish appears to be more prone to disease than many other tetras (particularly to skin parasites). However, wild specimens, which (judging from the preponderance of gold “morphs”) usually show evidence of exposure to the parasite, tend not to be carriers and pose no general threat to their tankmates.
