種の概要

Microctenopoma ansorgii, a member of the family Anabantidae, is native to 非洲. It gulps air at the surface, so warm, still, plant-covered water is home — and cold drafts are not. It swims in mid-water. Adults reach 18.8–27.5 cm. A pair bonds loosely; keep décor between rivals. Give it warm, gentle water, floating plants and quiet neighbours; filter flow should barely ripple the surface. Maintain 22–30 °C at pH 6.5–7.5. A solid choice for a well-planned community tank.
