Nothobranchius korthausae

Latin Name: Nothobranchius korthausae Common Name: Tiger Killie Origin: Mafia Island, Africa Size: 1½ inch (3.5 cm) Suggested Minimum Tank Size: 1 gallon + Preferred Temperature: 68-80°F (20-27°C)   Special Considerations:   Nothobranchius korthausae is a soil-spawning Killifish form Africa.   Males are pretty aggressive but get along ok if MORE than 2 are in the same tank, never keep only 2 males. Due to their aggressiveness its best to keep them in a species only tank.   A pair will do ok in a one gallon tank, but a bigger tank is better. A group of 4 or 5 males and 6 to 8 females in a 10 gallon tank is awesome.   Back to Fish And Fauna
