Tiny Livebearers

[MerryWidow]

Besides Heterandria formosa and Neoheterandria elagans, are there any other tiny livebearers in the hobby? That could go in, say, a 2.5 or 5 gallon tank?

Neoheterandria tridentiger
Xenophallus umbratilis
Xiphophorus couchianus (very rare)
Xiphophorus pygmaeus
Flexipinis vittatus
Skiffia bilineata (very rare)
Poecilia picta

All the above are around apart from whats marked very rare

As with all things in the hobby, availability is greatly dependent on location. As for tiny livebearers, I'd say stuff like poeciliposis prolifica. Highly recommended.

Thanks, actually I found some Poeciliopsis prolifica and will be getting them next week. Have you had them?

nope, unfortunately. They are just too small for my taste.
