Description
Blue Gardneri Killifish hail from the rainforest streams of Nigeria and Cameroon. Growing to around 6cm in length, Blue Kardini Kilifish are renowned for their viibrant, blue, steel-coloured bodies peppered with red spots, and their yellow tipped fins. They are a peaceful species with entertaining behaviour, making them a popular among fish lovers.
Blue Kardini Kilifish can be kept individiually, in a trio or larger group. Always make sure that the number of females significantly outweighs the number of males to limit aggression.
Blue Kardini Kilifish Thrive in heavily planted aquariums, particularly for group where the plants can help to break line of sight , reduce stress and limit territorial behaviour. Consider a soft, dark substrate and bogwood, to mimic their natural environment.
Blue Kardini Kilifish are excellent jumpers, be sure to secure the lid on your aquarium to prevent them leaping out.
At Wirral Aquatics we feed our Blue Kardini Kilifish a diet EBO Pro Soft Artemia, Insect meal and Mussel. They are predatory fish and will eat anything small enough to fit in their mouths. They love live and frozen foods such as daphnia and brine shrimp.

Ordering livestock
We strive to ensure that we honour all orders placed online. However, we are a small, busy shop and tracking livestock inventory can be challenging. If we are unable to fulfil your order, we will contact you as soon as possible to discuss options so that you can decide how you would like to proceed.
If livestock are appearing out of stock on our website, it does not necessarily mean that they are not available in store. If there is something that you are looking for, please contact us and we will be happy to discuss what is possible.
