Melanotaenia Boesemani
Boeseman's rainbowfish (''Melanotaenia boesemani''), also known as the Boesemani rainbowfish, is a species of fish in the family Melanotaeniidae. Geographic range ''M. boesemani'' is endemic to the Ayamaru Lakes and their tributaries in a mountainous region of the Bird's Head Peninsula, West Papua, Indonesia.

In captivity ''M. boesemani'' is also available in the aquarium hobby, where it is prized for its excellent colours and peaceful demeanor. The colour pattern is completely different from most other forms of rainbowfish, as it has a half orange-red rear and a bluish-grey or purple front which in some specimens is almost defined perfectly. ''M. boesemani'' will often grow to lengths that exceed if given the right food and water conditions. Like most rainbowfish they are capable of adjusting their color intensity. Their color intensity may ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |
