Neoheterandria elegans

Neoheterandria elegans is a unique fish known for its beautiful appearance and small stature. It is generally peaceful, making it ideal for community aquariums with other non-aggressive species. Due to its small size, a secure lid is essential to prevent jumping. A planted tank can provide shelter and replicate the natural habitat of shallow, vegetated waters. Regular water changes are advised to ensure a clean and healthy environment. They have a unique reproductive feature known as superfetation, enabling females to carry multiple broods at different stages of development, making them fascinating for breeding purposes.
