Text Appearing Before Image:
Fig. 2o9. Hyphessobrycon flammens (Two-thirds size) Our illustration falls far short of doing justice to this flaming little fellow. It should be shown in full color, which we hope to do later. The fore part of body is metallic green, shading off to red, while the fins are deep red. Known to some aquarists as Tetragonopterus from Rio, which is partially correct, for the fish comes from Rio de Janeiro. Breeding habits, page 238 (No. 5).
Text Appearing After Image:
Fig. 270. Aphyocharax rubripinnis (Incorrectly Tctragonoptcrns rubropictus) (Slightly reduced) The blood-red fins of this species attract instant attention. The body is greenish to silvery, making the contrast as strong as possible. Although this fish seems comfortable in the temperature of a tropical fish aquarium, it comes from a climate in Argentine comparable to that of our milder states, say like that of Virginia. At any rate it is capable of safely living in a temperature of about 60 degrees Fahrenheit, which is an advantage. A most charming aquarium fish. The sexes are distinguished somewhat peculiarly. The males have very small hooks on the anal fins. When the fisfi is lifted in a net of Brussels netting (the proper kind to use for all small fishes) the male fish sticks to the netting by these hooks and has to be shaken loose. Breeding habits, page 238 (No. 5). 273
