Jimmy, the Aplocheilus dayi is commonly known as the 'Green Panchax'. If you look up the following threads, there're information and further links on the Aplocheilus panchax or 'Blue Panchax'.
Both species belong to the same genus, sharing similar breeding preferences.
Wild Aplochelius , Wild Aplochelius Panchax has spawned !!! & Aplochelius Panchax page.
I'm back & keeping 'em fingers wet,
