View Full Version : brackish cardinals
I came across a fish that I love the looks of but know zip about. So, has anyone kept Wichmann's cardinal fish (Glossammia wichmanni)? Are they easy to keep? Would they go with scats? or mudskippers?

Well, I found one pic of a juvenile but it did not help asboth body shape and color pattern change as it grows. Here is a picture of a close cousin, the MOUTH ALMIGHTY (Apogon aprion) the body shape is right but the wichmanns color pattern is a bronze green and it has about 15 thin diagonal black stripes angling up from the fishes ventral side to the dorsal side angled from front to back.
