5 - Description of some biotopes



The killifishes are most often in low wide streams (a few cm to about 2m). They live in quieter areas of short water, except Procatopus and Poropanchax who like a bit more current.

I will describe some habitats, classic or original, to better visualize these little corners of paradise.
