Today I do some myth busting… and explain why I think killifish are for everyone... including you :0)

Killifish are an interesting group of small to medium sized fish - that live in a diversity of biotopes across the globe.

Even though these fish are among the most colourful of all freshwater fish - they have never really reached the same popularity in the aquarium hobby as say tetras, barbs and cichlids.

There are several reasons for that, most of which are myths that seem to be hard to get rid of. Today we take a look at some of those.

Hope you enjoy!

Cheers Ulla and Michael
