This generally peaceful, small species displays a great variety of vibrant coloration, particularly when in breeding condition. Males are the most colorful, but females are typically colorful in their own right. In addition to being an excellent display fish in the community and planted aquarium, the American Flagfish is also an effective algae eater, and it is one of the few species that will eat pesky black beard\/brush algae! In an outdoor pond, it is very useful for algae control as well as for eating insect larvae.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThe American Flagfish often occupies the top level of the water column, although it will inhabit all areas of the aquarium much more than most killifish species. It is not afraid to jump, so it must be kept in an aquarium with either a lid\/hood\/canopy or at least a significantly lowered water level. It will not eat or bother plants and it will appreciate the cover, especially with floating plants. The American Flagfish is possibly compatible with other peaceful fish and some invertebrate species that thrive in low to moderate water flow. Smaller dwarf shrimp might be considered prey, but most other larger, peaceful shrimp can make good tankmates. Male American Flagfish are somewhat territorial during spawning, so ample space is required for adults, but this species is still best kept in a group. It is rather undemanding regarding water parameters, and it can be kept in both tropical and subtropical setups.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThe American Flagfish is an omnivore that feeds on tiny invertebrates as well as algae.

This species requires plenty of meaty foods as well as foods with high plant (preferably algae-based) content, especially if there is not plenty of algae growing in the aquarium.  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhat We Like About This Fish:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eBeautiful coloration and small size\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003ePeaceful disposition with fish and peaceful invertebrates\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eEasy to breed in the aquarium\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eVery versatile regarding most water parameters\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eExcellent algae eater    \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eRECOMMENDED TANK PARAMETERS:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eTemperature: 64° - 86° F (18° - 30° C)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003epH: 6.5 - 8.0\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eKH: 2 - 19 dKH\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eMinimum Tank Size: 20 gallons for a pair, 30+ gallons for a small group\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eCARE INFORMATION:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eDiet:  Omnivorous.
