Thanks for watching! The whole family was a mystery to me until one late night of internet research. All it takes is to find something interesting to you & running with it. If you like these, be sure to check out some of the other videos, lots of beautiful species 😉
I really enjoyed watching your videos. Very interesting too! You hear about aquarist keeping rare fish, but you don’t see them often. I see what you’re doing and you should get a grant to help. Do you have any awards for your work? Thank you for sharing!
Thank you so much! I have a breeder award for BAP through the Chicago Livebearer Society but most of the species I breed have not been submitted. In the mean time just happy sharing my appreciation for these and other closely related creatures. Glad you like them too!
Congrats, they are incredible creatures! I only have males of the Puente Pino Suarez. Hopefully yours breed well enough where you can share! I am looking!
@@AndrewPiorkowski When it comes to the lateralis, I have two pairs from Puente Pino Suarez, so I am also hoping they breed soon. Yes, I will share once I have fry. Thank you for doing what you do.
Hey Andrew, I always enjoy your videos. I saw in one of the fish room tour vids that you have Limia Tridens now. They are an awesome fish. I love the blue. Maybe you could do a species specific video on them sometime? Also, have you gotten any Poecilia Caucanus yet?
Thank you so much! I was thinking about doing a new Limia video, because of the tridens but also the vittata Pat Hartman gave me after I visited him! Should be awesome! As for that poeciliid species, not yet but maybe some day!
Thanks for videos. I have 10 in a 40 gallon with large rock pile , rarely see the fish since they were put in about one week ago. I notice your tank is fairly open. They do hide, wondering if I should remove rock pile. Also wondering if you have yours in 10 gallon? Put them in large tank as articles I read indicated they needed a large tank. been feeding flakes and live brine only see them occasionally when I feed the brine. any input would be much appreciated. Thanks
Mine are in a 10 gallon, have that fake skull & a bunch of plants. They do love to hide as there is really no indicator as to the population size until I put food in the tank. The large tank size seems to be a general recommendation. I tend to just do what works for me. They started breeding the 10 so that's where they are for now.
This is one species I would like have back in the fishroom again one day.
Another great update. Thank you for sharing- Little Bobby
The video descriptions are very helpful to follow the important information you describe. Thank you.
Thanks for watching & commenting! Glad to be able to share these fish with you!
super.👍
Beautiful rainbow goodeid, I never knew about this fish before, great share 👍. Video description is precise and to the point.

Wow they are really beautiful aren’t they
Thanks man! Goodeids are sweet, especially this species!
Amazing fish for some reason they always remind me of puffer fish
They are cool & I can see what you're talking about! Watching them orient their eyes as they hover looking for food, lol. Thanks for watching!

Andrew Piorkowski- I sure do enjoy watching your videos! Your welcome!
Hi Andrew, I have been following you for some time. Now, I own two types of chracodons (lateralis from Pino Suarez and audax).
Congrats, they are incredible creatures! I only have males of the Puente Pino Suarez. Hopefully yours breed well enough where you can share! I am looking!

@@AndrewPiorkowski Thanks for input, guess I will wait them out and see hope they get a little more bold.
Awesome Video Thanks for Sharing FishFam NJAE19
Have you seen the line breeding for the red morph of this species?
What is your feeding schedule like and what do you feed?
also what type of filtration are you using for these guys?
@@lindseynewman680 feed at least twice daily (assorted flakes & Bug Bites). Filters are super basic HOB, just for water movement.
@@AndrewPiorkowski Thank you! I have to write a paper for my aquarium science class on the Rainbow Goodeid and your videos have been helpful.
They are looking good. But honestly I expected nothing less. 👍
Thanks man! The fish do most of the work, lol
