    Even within these species there are several color morphs and location populations.  Chromaphyosemion are also distinguished from other Aphyosemion and killies generally by their very large and spectacular dorsal and anal fins.

    Chromaphysemions do very well in aquariums of 5 - 10 gallon size.  They do best in well planted aquarium, to simulate their native environment. 

    Chromaphosemion are plant spawners and readily can be bred in the aquarium using the mop spawning method.  (Breeding Help/Info Aquarium-Club Members Only)
