Nothobranchius Brieni

[diboroan]

Does anyone have a picture of a female Nothobranchius Brieni to show me? Thanks a lot.

We don't even have a picture of a male brieni... There fish was never collected alive, and colour pictures drawn. There was a picture of an alledged brieni on a stamp but this has been shown to be a kafuensis instead.

Sorry I can't contribute something positive.

bye

Could anyone else help me out on this? Thanks

There fish was never collected alive

Any particular reason why?

[TyroneGenade]

The collections were sent back to Belgium (or Holland or Germany) as preserved fish in formalin. Formalin is unconducent to living.

The Shaba province of the DRC is still a nasty place I so I doubt we will be seeing this fish in living colour for long-time. Of course, miracles do happen and the place is littered with missionaries.
