Neolebias trilineatus (African Characin with three bands)

Neolebias Trinineatus is a fish belonging to the Aplocheilidae family. It is an endemic species of the Iradoubo region in French Guyana, where it lives in the clear and shallow waters of streams and ponds.

The Neolebias Trinineatus is a small fish, measuring about 4 cm in length. It has an elongated and side compressed body, with a small mouth and located in the lower position. The color of her body varies from pale green to gray, with black spots dispersed on the back and sides.

Neolebias Trinineatus is mainly a lonely fish, but it can sometimes be seen in groups in the calm waters of streams and ponds. It feeds mainly on small insects and other aquatic organisms which it captures with its mouth in the lower position.

Neolebias trineatus is an oviparous species, which means that females lay eggs that males fertilize. The eggs are placed on the leaves and branches of the aquatic plants, where they are protected until the frys hatch.

Neolebias Trinineatus is a endangered species due to the destruction of its natural habitat by humans. The clear and shallow waters of streams and ponds where it lives are often polluted by human activities, which can affect the survival of this species. In addition, the introduction of other species of fish into its habitat can also be harmful to the Neolebias Trinineatus.
