Nannostomus mortenthaleri are a stunningly beautiful species of pencilfish, found in the jungles of Peru and shipped for the aquarium trade. Not many people have bred these fish commercially as they can be difficult to spawn in larger numbers, for a home breeder, it is not that difficult to breed yourself a nice shoal of 40-50 fish. #pencilfish #red #fish #tropicalfish | Premier aquatics ltd | Facebook
