Gardneri Killifish (Fundulopanchax gardneri): Care Guide - Fish Laboratory

Gardneri Killifish (Fundulopanchax gardneri) are beautiful fish that are great for small to medium sized aquariums. Their name derives from the Dutch word ‘killy’ which means a ditch or canal. As their name suggests, they are often found in shallow waters such as water-holes, streams, and marshes. Since they are adapted to these shallow bodies of waters, Killifish generally do not grow very large.
