Pencilfish!

Check out this awesome group of pencilfish (with a special guest appearance of January tetras) at Agua Boa! The gentle capture of many species of home aquarium fish from the Rio Negro Region drives conservation by providing sustainable livelihoods to rural families. Want to see these beautiful fish for yourself? Join us on an expedition in January of 2025!

Hockey stick pencil fish are my favourite pencil fish. Good to see them in their natural habitat. They are the best dither fish for apistos!

Fascinating behavior.

Cool to see pencils in their natural habitat! I’d love to keep nannostomus eques one day!

I wonder whether the other fishes look at the pencilfish and think " Oh, weird " 😅

[@CesarRamirez-yi7hv]

I have this two species, unifaciatus its enemy of eques in the aquarium

Awesome to see them in their natural habitat! Weird that you and "Aquadiction" posted videos of pencil fish within an hour of each other!
