[Cyprinodontiformes] Aquarium Glaser Newsletter December 17th, 2010

[www.viviparos.com]

Caros colegas,

 

Mais um esforço de actualização.

Aqui vai mais uma edição em atraso da " newsletter " da firma GLASER.

Apercebi-me só há pouco tempo, numa conversa telefónica com o Paulo alves, que quem
não estiver a receber esta mensagem em formato HTML apenas tem acesso às
hiperligações relativas às imagens.

Se houver mais alguém que não esteja a receber a composição original, ou seja, que
não esteja a visualizar esta mensagem com as respectivas fotos, por favor
contacte-me, a fim de resolvermos essa incómoda situação.

No final desta edição há um foto de um Goodeiídeo - Xenoophorus sp. " Illescas " 

Um abraço

Miguel Andrade

Discus season - part2

Currently we have beautiful, large Heckel discus from the Rio Nhamunda in stock. The
characteristic feature of that variety is the bright blue sash-like band.

Discus Heckel blue body Nhamunda

The term "discus Heckel cross" is given for fish with a broader central bar on the
body, the so called "Heckel bar". Despite this the fish are very different and
probably also originate from different regions. Among them are real gems, some with a
high degree of red body colouration.

Plagioscion squamossisimus

Croakers, also called Drums (Sciaenidae) are a fish family that comprises about 290
species. Most of them are marine, but some occur exclusively in fresh water. In South
America about 20 species and 4 genera are known to live in fresh water. The smallest
among them becomes only 7 cm long (Pachypops pigmaeus), most become 20-40 cm long.
They are quite abundand and important food fish.

However, none of them has been imported as an ornamental fish so far. Now we can
offer for the first time a member of the genus Plagioscion from Peru. Probably it is
P. squamosissimus, but it may also be the close relative P. auratus. Plagioscion are
predatory fish and one should not underestimate the broad mouth! Against conspecifics
the fish are peaceful. P. squamosissimus can reach a length of about 80 cm, whereas
P. auratus becomes only half of that.

For our customers: the fish have code 280593 on our stocklist. Please note that we
exclusively supply the wholesale trade.

Lexicon: Plagioscion: ancient Greek, means "oblique scion"; Scion was the common name
in hellenistic Greek for the Red mullet. squamosissimus: Latin, the word is a
superlative of the adjective meaning "scaled", so it means something like "with many,
many scales". auratus: Latin, means "golden".

Suggestion of a common name: South American silver croaker

Coenobita cavipes

For the first time we can offer this intersting species of terrestrial hermit crab in
a xxl- format! Besides this the animals also bear extremely beautiful shells of
marine snails.

Keeping these terrestrial hermit crabs does not differ from other species. This means
one has to keep them in groups; the terrarium has to contain enough soil (15-20 cm
deep) that the animal can burry itself completely during moulting; at least two bowls
filled with daily changed water, one with fresh and one with seawater, are needed as
drinking water and for keeping the breathing organs functionable (although the hermit
crabs live exclusively on land and can even die by drowning, they breath through
specialized gills that have to be kept moist to stay functional). Hermit crabs are
omnivorous so feeding them is no problem at all.

Detailed informations on terrestrial hermit crabs can be found in TerralogNews No 95
(English version available online problably  January 2011 via www.aqualog.de).

For our customers. The animals have code 483147 on our stocklist. Please note that we
exclusively supply the wholesale trade.

Lexicon: Coenobita: derived from the Latin word for "monastery" or "religious
community". cavipes: Latin, means "with hollow foot".

Suggestion of a common name: Big land hermit crab

Aphyosemion campomaanense

10/aphyosemion%20campomaanense-ag.jpg> 

For the first time ever we have this pretty killifish in stock. Our specimes are
German bred. This up to 5 cm long fish originates from Cameroon. It has been
described scientifically in 2009. The closest relative of this species is the well
known Aphyosemion ahli. The easiest way to distinguish these two species from each
other is by the coloration of the caudal fin, which is bordered in A. ahli by two
almost identically broad and yellow bars. In A. campomaanense the upper bar is much
narrower and whitish. 

For our customers: the animals have code 306553 on our stocklist. Please note that we
exclusively supply the wholesale trade.

Lexicon: Aphyosemion from ancient Greece, means "small fish with flag-like fins".
campomaanense: after the type locality, the Campo-Ma'an National Parc in Cameroon.
ahli: dedication name for Ernst Ahl, at times ichthyologist working in Berlin.

Suggestion of a common name: Campomaan-killi

Dear customers and subscribers of our newsletter,

our weekly importatios regularly content species and varieties we never or only very
occassionally had in stock. Thus they are - at least for us - new. Sadly it is for
different reasons not possible to portray all of them in detail. However, we want to
show you at least some of the most interesting of them by a photograph. Enjoy!
