One of my favorite fish genera is Gambusia. And one of my new favorite fish I've discovered is the Mangrove Gambusia. They like our regular mosquito fish but brackish and full-on tropical from the deep south of Florida. What's most amazing about them is their striking blue eyes and green dorsal...
This is my 40 gallon mini pond stock tank which contains my school of mosquitofish and some golden top minnows.
The last picture is of my ponds newest resident: a frog I named Hopediah.🤣
I’ve had two mosquito fish for quite some time now, and the female has been very heavily pregnant for about 2 months now. Is this normal? If not what should I do? She isn’t acting sick or lethargic or anything, she’s very healthy, i’m just worried because she’s been that size in the picture...

So, this may sound a little strange, and even awful to some, but at my college we have a start-up research project on fish and how the fracking industry and how untreated mine drainage effect their growth, development, and breeding. We're looking into using mosquitofish, as they are easy to...
