Clown Killifish

Clown Killifish (Epiplatys annulatus)

The Clown Killifish is a small, brightly colored species known for its striking appearance and peaceful nature. These fish are adorned with vibrant, multi-colored bands of yellow, red, and blue, giving them a "clownish" appearance. Their petite size, combined with their lively swimming behavior and unique coloration, make them an excellent choice for nano and peaceful community aquariums. Although small, they have a big presence in the tank, especially when kept in groups where their natural schooling behavior shines.
