Spike-Tail Paradise Fish

Aquarium Glaser

Pseudosphromenus dayi


Natural Range: Western Ghats, India

Source: Aquarium Glaser

Estimated size at shipping: 1.5"

Sold as: Unsexed

Overview:

An unsung hero, these anabantids are one of my favorites. They are not common in the hobby which is a shame because they are beautiful, peaceful, hardy, and spunky. In my experience, they are outgoing and interact with their owners begging for food. I've always thought they looked like the lovechild of a Licorice Gourami and a Betta.

Setup Considerations:

They are not very particular about how their aquarium is setup. I've had great success keeping these in a bare aquarium with a sponge filter and a tight fitting lid. I've also kept them in heavily planted tanks. As long as the tank does not have strong water movement, these will probably be happy.

Diet: Carnivore

The Spike Tail Paradise Fish is easy to feed. They eat everything...flakes, pellets, wafers, frozen foods and live foods are all eagerly consumed.
