The Aplocheilus Lineatus - Golden Wonder Killi is a spectacular centerpiece for the modern freshwater aquarium, known for its brilliant coloration and sophisticated social behavior. Characterized by a shimmering metallic gold body and a distinctively aerodynamic profile, this species is a masterclass in aquatic aesthetics. In the "Answering Machine" era of specialized freshwater husbandry, the Golden Wonder Killi is highly prized for its surface-dwelling presence and its ability to cohabit beautifully with other robust community residents.
Unlike many other community fish, Golden Wonder Killies are specialized surface predators with a high-impact visual appeal. They are exceptionally active swimmers that occupy the upper levels of the water column, providing a constant display of color and predatory precision.
Note: Images shown are stock images and not the actual fish you will receive.
Care Level: Easy
Temperament: Semi-aggressive (Predatory toward small fish)
Minimum Tank Size: 20 Gallons
Diet: Carnivore
Reef Compatible: N/A (Freshwater)
Max Size: 4 Inches
Water Conditions: 72 to 78°F, dKH 5 to 20, pH 6.0 to 7.5
The Golden Wonder Killi is an ideal candidate for a planted community tank, provided its tankmates are too large to be considered prey. While they do not require specific substrate, they do require plenty of surface cover—such as floating plants or tall-reaching stems—to feel secure and mimic their natural environment. They are high-metabolism fish and should be fed a varied diet of frozen meaty foods—such as mysis, bloodworms, and vitamin-enriched brine shrimp—at least twice daily. Like all killifish, they are notorious jumpers; a tight-fitting lid with no gaps is mandatory for their safety.
We’ve dialed in the logistics for national Overnight Delivery to ensure your livestock arrives in peak condition. Every order is packed using professional-grade insulation and climate-contingent heat or ice packs, designed to maintain stable temperatures throughout the journey. We handle the technical side of the move so you can focus on the acclimation. Our protocol is built on getting these fish from the facility to your tank with zero compromise on health or vitality.
