• clear with lots of mud on the bottom. The pool was about 6 feet long and of nearly the same width. The greatest depth in one corner was nearly 1 foot. The temperature of the water the day they were caught (at 3 PM) was about 90° F. There was bright sunlight with no shade about. The hardness was 4.5 DH and the pH (measured electrically) was 6.8. There were no plants in the pool except algae and no other fishes were present either. My friend told me that the pool dries up in the summer and that there is no water for about 6 months. Therefore, they must be bottom spawners most assuredly. Until now I haven’t gotten a single egg from these fishes although they are eating very well. They are shy, not at all like the Aphyosemion roloffi(?). I lost one female but the others are round and full with eggs. I hope to be able to breed them and to be able to report more about this fish soon in the pages of KN. Highlights in by Henry Pinda, Lake Worth, Florida This article will treat in brief, the spawning and incubation of Petrolebias longipinnis and Nothobranchius guentheri. I have been asked by many AKA members about the care of these two particular killies but it is only after very long study that I feel I can now finally bring my experiences to the attention of other club members. What took two years of investigation, including over 150 experiments, I shall try to summarize in as short a story as possible. About two and a half years ago I received from Dick Haas a small package containing the eggs of these two species. These, I had great pleasure in hatching, resulting in 11 guentheri and
• longipinnis. My delight particularly was in the way both species grew and the colors of the guentheri. The longipinnis were drab but pleasant-looking fish, however, I had no idea they grew so large! They are even larger than blue gularis, but much more stately. I subsequently spawned both species and packed their eggs with much care. The longipinnis produced very large eggs, the guentheri being much smaller. Before the time came to hatch
