Fundulosoma thierryi |
||||
![]() A young male. Also known as Nothobranchius thierryi Origin: Ghana, Africa Temp: 72-86°F (22-30°C) pH: 7 to 8 dH: Not Critical Feeding: By far the best results will come from a diet that includes mainly live foods such as baby brine shrimp, grindal worms, daphnia and mosquito larvae. Dry and even frozen foods are taken with a lot of reluctance. ![]() A young pair, female below Temperament: Although thierryi is a very small species it is an aggressive little spud. As with most killies the males will fight if there are 2 in a tank but they will establish a "pecking order" if 3 or more males are present. This is my preferred way of keeping them. A tank full of male thierryi will be a beautiful sight. The males will be constantly showing their full color and minor sparring sessions will be the norm. Adult Size: 1¼ in. (3 cm) is about the maximum. Minimum Tank Size: 1 gallon Health Comments: I use up to 2 teaspoons of rock salt per gallon with this fish. F. thierryi is extremely susceptible to "velvet" disease. This concentration of salt will just about eliminate 90% of the health problems with most Soil Spawning Killifish. |
