Common name: Tiger Panchax
Scientific Name: Aplocheilus lineatus
Malayalam: Poonjan, Manathukanni, Poochutti
Description: Lives in streams and reservoirs at high altitudes, and in
rivers, wells of the plains, low-lying paddy fields, swamps and
brackish waters. Utilized for mosquito control. Not a seasonal
killifish.
Habitat and Distribution:. Found in Benthopelagic, freshwater or
brackish environments. Originated Southern and middle India.
Disrtibuted in Asia widely distributed in Peninsular India.
Feeding and Breeding: Live food, although flake food is accepted.
Aplocheilus lineatus will usually spawn in the community tank. Soft
slightly acidic well filtered water with a temperature of 26-27
degrees will give the greatest chance of success. The pair should be
fed large amounts of live food in such a tank, and left in the
breeding tank for a period of maximum two weeks. After this remove the
parents. The first eggs will start to hatch around this time, and
should be fed infusoria in the beginning.
