Looking for: Epiplatys annulatus

Looking for Epiplatys annulatus. I just joined the AKA and would love to try this fish. Please message me if you have any questions thanks.

Hi there

I am a new member of the AKA, I joined yesterday and have been reading as much as I can. I choose to join this group as I am 3 hours away from the closest club, WAKO. I have small children so being gone for a day to attend a club meeting is unlikely to happen.

I am very interested in trying a few different types of killies. I have had aquariums for over 10 years and experience breeding egg scatterers. I just setup 5x 5gallon aquariums for killies, no heaters and I drilled through the polycarbonate tops to bring down an airline for the sponge filters so the aquariums are completely secure, no gaps to jump out of.

I am very curious to try epiplatys annulatus due to information that I read that I may be able to have a larger group of them, not sure if that’s true but that would be amazing to see. I am also interested in a notho due to the great colors but I haven’t done enough research to know more than that. My water is pretty hard, but I have read that there are killies that would appreciate it.

Ph 7.8
10 dKH
4.5 dGH

I would love any input, or if you could steer me in a better direction I would appreciate it. Is the forum it still a good place to post on? Is it true that the fish and egg list don’t come out until the temperatures are generally a little warmer? Getting eggs in the mail sounds greats to me as it seems easier than shipping fish.

App beta test

I imagine most members have their aquarium water figured out.

Nevertheless, I built a simple app that analyzes water chemistry test strips automatically.

If you'd like to try it out as a beta tester, please DM me your email. I have an android version ready and will eventually get the iOS version up.

Thank you,

Dan

2026 AKA Convention Swap Table

Russell Feilzer — Tue, 03 Feb 2026 18:31:42 +0000

I've already registered for this years convention in St. Louis. I'm definitely interested in a table at the swap meet. I have lots of interesting fish to bring and sell. Does anyone know when and how these will be made available?
