種の概要

From the waters of New Guinea comes Glossolepis incisus, a member of the family Melanotaeniidae. A schooling fish of open, sunlit water whose colours arrive with maturity, not in the shop tank. It lives on the bottom. Adults reach 9–13.2 cm. Schools in the open water; never keep below 6. Long tank, big group, steady water changes — colour follows within months. Maintain 29–30 °C at pH 7.6–8.2. A solid choice for a well-planned community tank.
