Arnoldichthys spilopterus (BOULENGER, 1909)

African Red-eyed Tetra

March 13th, 2012 — 1:19pm

Endemic to Nigeria, where it occurs in the Ogun and lower Niger river systems. Despite its popularity in the aquarium hobby it’s relatively scarce in the wild and is known from less than 10 localities, all lying in an area where deforestation and pollution are uncontrolled and continue to occur extensively.
