Details -
These are currently about 2" in size.
This species has one of the smallest natural ranges of any fish. What the Devil's Hole Pupfish is to killifish M Klasionensis is to rainbowfish. It lives in a small bit of creek that is exposed when an underwater river briefly pops up to the surface before returning back underground. The entire habitat is about 5 meters wide and only a few kilometers long. All it will take is one small pollution event or the like, and these are gone forever. So, if you are the sort of person who likes to conserve goodeids and pupfish and the like, these might be of especial interest to you.

Water Parameters: We keep all our fish at a temperature of 79 F.
Our pH measures around 8.3 with a KH and GH a bit over 300ppm. That being said, we want to caution folks with different water parameters from thinking that they need to change their water for our fish. We have many customers in the Pacific Northwest, Upstate New York, and other areas that have very soft water. Our fish do just fine in their water without any parameter matching. What is most important is that the water our fish are put in upon arrival have steady parameters, not that your water parameters match ours.
