Aphyosemion Killifish?

[Valmyre]

Hiya, can anyone please advise on me killi fish, i read that the Aphyosemion species is a good community fish but there is contradicting readings on the net, I would love to have a killi/pair in my commun' tank, but not too sure which species would be best suited ,if any, .

Ones to look out for are Aphyosemion australe either gold or chocolate varieties. Aphyosemion striatum, Fundulopanchax gardneri and Epiplatys dageti monrovia all fit in well in the community aquaria. There are a few others but these are the most common and are considered beginners species although australe can present a few problems when breeding.
Steer clear of the common Aplochelius lineatus gold (golden wonders) if you have small fish in your community aquarium.
