That's an great find. I really like the Killifish because they adapt to some of the worst conditions

I read a more accurate version in the university of guelph magazine (parents are graduates) but couldn't find anything that accurate online. The fish is called a mangrove rivilus

These are Rivulus, right? From Florida? If so, they also reproduce asexually... they are build to survive, man.

i bet even petsmart couldn't screw up keeping these things lol

oh wait, knowing them they'll find some way to mess up

Some pet stores try to feed Uromastyx spray millet, just because some people say that you can use spray millet as substrate, because IF they eat it, it wont kill them. By that logic, Petsmart would probably start keeping Rivulus on damp sphagnum moss.
