Least common here. Quite common there

So I've been doing some light research on smaller/nano tropical species. I came across Heterandria formosa in my searches. From what I gather based on UK fourms / Reddit, this little Least killifish is quite a hard one to come by on this Island. I was surprised to see how abundant it's found in the southeast US of A, and yet there is little Interest and enthusiasm for this one. Especially in a very popular European nano side of this hobby. I guess its colouration doesnt grab the attention like a CPD or Dwarf Emerald danio? Given my obsession with heavily planted tanks and a slightly annoying restriction to smaller tanks, I think I may have found a new animal to tame. If I get free tank space, would anyone care to grab a net and catch me a few ? Also, see what I did there with the title.

I can make a good guess the masters @fish48 @emeraldking have kept, or have some hidden away out of view of prying eyes

They're pleasant little fish. To get them, I had to net them them when I was visiting the south of the US. I think I've seen them in stores once, ever.
I do see the title. Nicely twisted!
In time, they tend to overpopulate tanks. That's their only drawback. I've had a little group going since 2006. They pretty well take care of themselves. To steal from you, they're the least of my problem fish.

Quite envious of you Gary well if you want to gloat about your 20 year old group, I was only 4 then and assumed every fish I saw was a goldfish!

I am envious of you being 4 when I got these fish...I'm at 34 years keeping Aphyosemion zygaima, but I think I'd rather reset to being 24 myself and just knowing what I've learned.

The navel isn't a reset button.

I still have them swimming overhere. Just like some other dwarf livebearer species, like: Quintana atrizona, Phallichthys tico and Neoheterandria elegans.
