    Hi guys

    I though I would post some pictures for you on the fish that I caught in Cameroon.

    Although I must admit my main interest is the dwarf cichlids, I did catch quite a numer of killies so far and have a few in my "fish box" at home

    Some killies and plants photographed near Semme beach a few km out of Limbe:









    My most recent trip (close to Moliwe)

















    Any Advice in identifying the killies above would by highly appreciated. I know there are some kind of Epiplatys and I was told that the other could be Chromaphyosemion

    Any specific catching localities will also be highly appreciated

    Thanks for sharing the pictures with us, Andre. It sure is interesting to see the actual habitats of the Killifish that we keep in our tanks. And I'm sure you must have had a lot of fun catching the Killies.

    I will still be here for a while, so I will send you pictures as I find new ones.

    The killies like hanging out in the vegetation on the edge of the river. It is easy to catch them by holding the net at the edge of the vegetation and chasing them into it.

    Thanks Andre for sharing with us. While you are getting your fingers wet, do take the time to note the temperature and pH of locations you collected killies. Will look forward to updates.
    I'm back & keeping 'em fingers wet,
