Remarks: Pseudomugil luminatus are a small species of Blue-Eye, a relative of the Rainbowfish. They are often confused with P. paskai, a species that is not common in the hobby. These bright red fish have very active personalities. Their pectoral fins are edged in a bright orange highlight, and their sporadic movements make them look as though they are fluttering about a tank. They will reproduce readily in a heavily planted aquarium without nippy fish. If breeding is not a goal, they can be kept with most community fish in tanks as little as 10-15 gallons.
