Simple Summary: Paradise fish (Macropodus opercularis) has been a favored subject of behavioral research during the last decades of the 20th century. Lately, however, with a massively expanding genetic toolkit and a well annotated, fully sequenced genome, zebrafish (Danio rerio) became a central model of recent behavioral research. But, as the zebrafish behavioral repertoire is less complex than that of the paradise fish, the focus on zebrafish is a compromise. With the advent of novel methodologies, we think it is time to bring back paradise fish and develop it into a modern model of Citation: Rácz, A.; Adorján, G.; behavioral and evolutionary developmental biology (evo-devo) studies. The first step is to define the Fodor, E.; Sellyei, B.; Tolba, M.; housing and husbandry conditions that can make a paradise fish a relevant and trustworthy model.

This species was previously recorded from the same area over 15 years ago, but was considered extirpated. The rediscovery of a reproducing population of this species highlights the dearth of information available regarding the dozens of non-native fishes in Florida, as well as the need for additional research and monitoring. Key words: canal; croaking gourami; cypress swamp; Florida; Loxahatchee; Osphronemidae; Trichopsis vittata was previously considered extirpated (Shafland Introduction et al. 2008a, b), but is now known to be reproducing in a localised area. Dozens of non-native fishes have been introduced into Florida’s inland waterways, via accidental escape, pet releases, or intentional introduction

  • Behavior and Phylogeny of Fishes of the Genus Colisa and the Family Belontiidae
    BEHAVIOR AND PHYLOGENY OF FISHES OF THE GENUS COLISA AND THE FAMILY BELONTIIDAE by RUDOLPH J. MILLER') and AMBROSE JEARLD2) (Department of Zoology, Oklahoma State University, Stillwater, Oklahoma, U.S.A.) (With2 Figures) (Acc.25-VI-1982) Introduction In an earlier paper on the behavior and phylogeny of trichogasterine fishes (MILLER & RoBISON, 1974) we presented arguments supporting the use of behavioral characteristics in assessing phylogenetic relation- ships among animals. Though we agreed with ATZ (1970) that care must be taken in establishing "homologies of behavior", we concluded that behaviortaxonomy studies often prove useful at the family or genus group level (MAYR, 1958; CULLEN, 1959; ALEXANDER, 1962; WICKLER, 1967; HINDE, 1970). We were able to show that the four species in the genus Trichogaster fall rather easily into two groups, based on numerous trench- ant behavioral characteristics. We also have been studying the behavior of the four species currently recognized in the genus Colisa (RESER, 1969; JANZOw, 1971; JEARLD, 1975). The purpose of this paper is to describe the reproductive behaviors of the Colisa spp., examine this information for insights on phylogenetic relationships of the group, and integrate this data with the earlier material on Trichogaster. Since LIEM (1963) placed both genera at the peak of adaptive radiation in the family Belontiidae, such a comparison may be of some value in assessing strengths and weaknesses of the comparative behavior technique. The Anabantoidei are a group of over 50 species of perciform fishes in- habiting tropical and subtropical regions of Southeast Asia, India, and Central Africa. The most recent revision of the group was done by LIEM (1963) who ordered the 15 genera into four families on the basis of 1) We are grateful to Drs H.

Abstract Mastacembelus armatus which is popularly known as tire-track spiny eel or zig-zag eel is a common fish species of Indian sub-continent. It is a popular table fish due to delicious taste and high nutritional value. In Bangladesh, its demand is even higher than that of the carps. It also has good popularity as an aquarium fish and recently has been reported to be exported as indigenous ornamental fish from India to other countries. Information so far available on its food, feeding habit and reproductive biology is in a scattered manner and till date no such consolidated report on these aspects is available.

L024 - Red Fin Cactus Pleco by Monopolymurder Photography / Animals, Plants & Nature / Aquatic Life©2014-2015 Monopolymurder http://monopolymurder.deviantart.com/art/Pseudacanthicus-sp-L024-Red-Fin-Cactus-Pleco-425540596 Just thought I'd give you guys a lesson on plecos. I got this beauty recently and he's absolutely gorgeous. A rare, large growing Pleco which generally grow up to around 30-40cm long. They are a carnivorous pleco, which means unlike the typical algae eaters you get, these guys generally eat meaty substances, like shrimp and fish. This guy, due to his size, is currently being fed small freeze dried shrimp and bloodworm. I also intend to feed it some colour enhancing foods in attempt to get the red in the finnage a little brighter. They're very tough fish and can get very territo- rial without the right environment. I have plenty of hiding spaces in my tank for my cats so each one has marked out its own territory. The way I am holding the L024 is the safest way to hold a pleco both for you and the pleco. If you need to hold a pleco for any reason, do -NOT- use a net. Due to their spiny skin they can get caught in fishing nets and trying to free them can cause horrendous damage to them. Each pleco has a solid bone area just before the gills which is a hard area.
