Golden Wonder Killifish

A golden surface-oriented killifish sold under the Golden Wonder trade name. Similar common names are used for different Aplocheilus fish, so confirm the supplied species when planning exact adult size or breeding.

Aquarium and care

Provide a mature tropical aquarium with surface cover, open feeding areas, and gentle circulation. A secure close-fitting lid is essential; these fish jump readily. Keep water clean and stable and provide sheltered zones away from dominant fish.

Feeding

Offer appropriate floating carnivore foods and suitably sized frozen or live aquatic foods. Monitor acceptance of prepared foods rather than assuming every individual eats flakes.

Temperament and tank mates

A predatory surface feeder that may swallow small fish and shrimp. Choose companions too large to fit in its mouth and avoid crowding the surface with timid fish.
