Jordanellae floridae

[Death Penguin]

When I was fishing around last night, I found a fish called Jordanellae floridae.

Which I thought was interesting, with so many Americans on this forum, and Americans being so patriotic I was suprised to see no one has any?

So whats the reason?

iam from uk and my friend has about 4 of those to be honest i dont like em but his daughter does

With a trade name of the "flag fish" this really has nothing to do with being patriotic!!

This fish does not resemble an American flag so I don't see the correlation!!

Must admit I can see the correllation with floridae...

Well I could be wrong, but the trade name I have for this fish is "American flagfish". Some of the pictures i have seen of this fish don't really do justice to the colouration of the fish.

I have never seen Jordanellae floridae in any LFS. Anyone have the link to a picture, I can't find it now?

Never kept them, (actually never seen one), but they have a reputation for being aggresive.
