Hello,
 
We (a friend and I) caught the beautifull little fish in the town of Kuantan in Malaisia last July. there are photos of the biotop and of the fishes in my tank:
















female

We found in the same place : Blue Trichopsis vittata, trichogaster tricopterus, and big snails. the water parameters were 210µS, pH 7,25, T°C 26°C at 9 am
I have a lot of fry of those imbellis for Dijon they will be good.

The same friend who gave me the linkei gave me this little parvulus, They are the smallest of all parophromenus (2.5cm)

Hi, I caught this little in Malaisia close to Chini lake (Tasik chini)
In the nature, Parosphromenus need a very soft water (25µS/Cm²)
