Bedotia sp. "Namorona" Bedotia sp. "Namorona" Date: 27/06/08 One of the nicest new Bedotias that Christophe Mailliet brought back from the USA. This is a displaying male, about 10 cm TL. They are found in the Namorona drainage, SE Madagascar.
Bedotia longianalis "Menantany" Bedotia longianalis "Menantany" Date: 27/06/08 Large male of about 11cm. There are several colour forms of that species, this one is from the area of Menantany, on the East Coast of Madagascar.
Bedotia marojejy Bedotia marojejy Date: 27/06/08 One of the nicest fish around, IMO. This is a male of about 8cm TL. They are from the Lokoho drainage, NE Madagascar.
Bedotia sp. "Ankavia" Bedotia sp. "Ankavia" Date: 27/06/08 Another beautiful fish, very similar to M. praecox in colouration: metallic blue with red fins. From the Ankavia and possibly also Ankavanana drainages in NE Madagascar.
Bedotia sp. "Sahambavy" Bedotia sp. "Sahambavy" Date: 27/06/08 A quite unusual Bedotia in built and colour. Unfortunately, I lost the only male before I could breed them. The males are sometimes nearly black overall, with orange fin margins.
Bedotia sp. "Lazana" Bedotia sp. "Lazana" Date: 27/06/08 A highland species, that does best in cool and strongly flowing water. Not easy to breed, as they are not very productive and the fry are very delicate. The males have beautiful, white-edged fins, and myriads of black speckles all over.
