[Cyprinodontiformes] Aquarium Glaser Newsletter July 3rd, 2010

[www.viviparos.com]

Caros colegas,

 

Eis as mais recentes novidades da firma Glaser.

Aparentemente este exportador de raridades está agora muito vocacionado para peixes
do Peru, o que baixa muito as hipóteses de vermos espécies nossas favoritas serem
aqui anunciadas.

No entanto a lista de espécies é muitíssimo mais vasta do que estas promoções.

Informem-se junto das lojas que trabalham com esta firma.

Um abraço

Miguel Andrade

Hemigrammus sp. "Boqueron"

 
<http://www.aquariumglaser.de/backend/FCK/UserFiles/Image/News-Pics/2010/kw%2026%2020

Currently we received from Peru a new species of Hemigrammus, which does not fit the
description of any species known so far. Thus we decided to adopt the name on the
import list, eg. "Boqueron". The pretty fish looks like a cross of the glowlight
tetra (Hemigrammus erythrozonus) and the silvertip tetra (Hasemania nana). Due to its
nice orange fins we thought initially indeed it would be a Hasemania species.
However, our fish has a well developed adipose fin. The lack of this fin is
genus-specific for Hasemania.

The new tetra seems to be a rather small species. Our specimens are 2.5 to 3 cm long
and already sexually developed. Regarding the behaviour they do not show any
significant differences to other small tetras of that type. Until now our fish have
prooved to be pretty hardy. All in all: a nice addition in the palette of tetras
available for the hobby.

For our customers: the fish has code 257533 on our stocklist. Please note that we
exclusively supply the wholesale trade.

Lexicon: Hemigrammus: ancient Greek, means "with half line", referring to the
incomplete lateral line, which is genus-specific. Hasemania: dedication name for J.
D. Haseman. nana: Latin, means "small, dwarfish".

Otocinclus mimulus

10/otocinclus%20mimulus-ag.jpg> 

For the first time ever we are now able to offer a very rare Otocinclus species,
namely O. mimulus. Besides all the well known good characteristics that it shares
with other members of the genus - small size, peacefulness, cleaning of plant leaves,
day activity - this species also has to offer a very special feature. It lives along
with a species of Corydoras and has the very same coloration; this phenomenon is
called mimesis. The Corydoras species is C. diphyes (see
http://www.aquariumglaser.de/en/corydoras-diphyes-_de_685.html) which we currently
also have in stock. So one has for the first time the chance to study the behaviour
of both species kept together in an aquarium.

For our customers: Otocinclus mimulus has code 273994 on our stocklist. Please note
that we exclusively supply the wholesale trade.

Lexicon: Otocinclus: ancient Greek, means "with latticed ear"; referring to a bone in
the skull, which is visible externally and placed where in humans would be the ear;
this bone has a latticed structure. mimulus: Latin, means "little actor", referring
to the mimikry of this species with Corydoras diphyes. Corydoras: from ancient greek,
means "with helmet and spear". This refers to the strong armor and fin spines.
diphyes: anicient Greek, adjective meaning "of double nature", in reference to the
variation in body patterns, eg striped and blotchy.

Metynnis lippincottianus PERU 

 
<http://www.aquariumglaser.de/backend/FCK/UserFiles/Image/News-Pics/2010/kw%2026%2020

The silver dollars of the genus Metynnis can be easily recognized by the shape of
their adipose fin. The determination of the species, however, is not that easy. We
recently received beautiful spotted silver dollars from Peru. There are two known
species with large spots in the Hobby, namely M. lippincottianus and M. maculatus. M.
maculatus has an enormous range in South America, whereas M. lippincottianus is
restricted to Brazil and Guyana. An exact determination of our fish was not possible
yet, but they look definitely different from the M. maculatus we already have in
stock. So we decided to name them provisionally M. lippincottianus PERU. It is also
possible that our fish represent a still undescribed species.

These silver dollars become around 12 cm long. They are magnificent schooling fish
that fit perfectly for tanks with South American cichlids. Plants are taken as food.

For our customers: the fish have code 267904 on our stocklist. Please note that we
exclusively supply the wholesale trade.

Lexicon: Metynnis: ancient Greek, means "in between the share"; this refers to the
spine before the dorsal fin. maculatus: Latin, means "spotted". lippincottianus:
dedication name.
