I have a pair of those as well, and from my research their species is Melanotania splendida or Splendid rainbow to some. Nice pic by the way.

WOW.....those threadfins are AMAZING..... I bet they don't get on with much other fish though.........with fins like THAT!!!!


I don't think mine are the splendids.........fins are all wrong and mine are SOOO vibrant that I just can't settle with that being what they are, or maybe I just don't want to ??





Maybe I will never know...........

Lateral, you have any ideas??

Well to get things started have any of you seen this new cross breed, isn't it amazing. I'm told (and it sounds right) that it's a red boesemani (Glossolepis incisus x Melanotaenia boesemani).

although seriously late for this thread the fish in the picture is a male Melanotaenia parkinsoni, (orange form). There is also a yellow form whereby the orange is replaced with yellow.
